How to serve Gingerbread Biscotti?

Gingerbread Biscotti taste phenomenal with hot drinks: I love one remarkable thing about biscotti that they are so crispy and crunchy and taste more awesome when dunked into a hot drink.

Just dunk them into a hot cup of tea or coffee until they get nice and soft, and get ready to savor the yummy flavors of winter. This hot drink dipping enhances their taste for sure.

Pair them with anything you like:

I personally love to have them with a warm mug of mulled wine. Mulled red wine + Gingerbread Biscotti = Holiday Mood Celebration.

When I don’t have mulled red wine, then I love to dunk them in hot milk coffee. So as a coffee lover I can tell that these biscotti are the wanted delights for us.

Tips for making Best Gingerbread Biscotti:

They also taste wonderful when they are plain, but you can surely add some texture by adding any of your favorite nuts or chocolate to them.

You can add any of your favorite nuts or chocolate to them, but I like my gingerbread biscotti plain with gingerbread cookie frosting drizzled over the top.

I have added cloves to this recipe, but if you don’t have cloves, you can also substitute cloves with the same amount of allspice.

This recipe only makes 24 biscotti, but you can surely double the recipe if you are planning to bake them as a holiday gift.

These can be served as a midday snack, or even a light after meal dessert.
