The anise flavor is very very mild. And, it really makes the biscotti taste authentic.
I'm a little sad today, because I just ate the last one! But with the recipe so handy, and now that I want to try it with almonds and almond flavoring, I think I'll make more tomorrow! I'll let you know how they are with almonds.
This is reminding me of the summer I got my food processor, and decided to find the perfect bread recipe. I think I gained 10 pounds in three months...

fyi there is a difference - Anise is an herb, Licorice is from a ROOT Licorice is naturally extremely sweet. Anise is a much lighter flavor, although similar to licorice.

Was going to make my mom's best coffee cake (and she IS a coffee cake snob!) but I seem to be out of brown sugar. Not sure how THAT happened! Heading to the Capitals Hockey game in a bit and will stop at the store on the way home. Coffee cake will be in the oven this evening.

We have an Italian Deli that opened near me about 20 years ago and Denise always had the best crumb cake for sale. We would go down on Sunday morning and get it fresh from her oven. Very unusual recipe. She stopped making it about 5 years ago as they are more deli for lunch now and she is doing other work full time. DH and staff run the store now! They are from Jersey so I know what you are probably talking about! Nothing like it anywhere else but I did find a recipe that sounds similar a while back - must see if I can find it in my "recipe" file on computer.
Have about 4 lbs of stew beef in crock pot with broth, salt and pepper. Will divide it up later and make into stew and Mexican green chili and freeze so I have lots of good eats through the week. Karen
