Sugar-free Keto Chocolate Almond Biscotti
Crisp biscotti covered with nutty, smooth dark or milk chocolate (it’s your choice!) makes a great, light snack for holiday gatherings or coffee breaks during a busy holiday schedule. Use Ross Milk Chocolate or Ross Dark Chocolate to make the biscotti and then choose which to use for the topping—be adventurous and use another flavour, like Dark Chocolate with Sea Salt, to give it a twist. Biscotti can be stored in an airtight container, so make them ahead so you always have them on hand.
