Lemon Almond Biscotti

  Lemon Almond Biscotti Our French language group was meeting at one of our members' homes, but we didn't want to have a large potluck. However, the plan was for a few light snacks. Biscotti seemed like the ideal idea! I decided to try  this recipe  for Lemon Almond Biscotti from King Arthur Baking.  I'm a fan of their  vanilla biscotti  recipe and I reasoned the lemon almond one would also be good.  I followed the recipe to the letter but, sadly, I found it rather disappointing.  First of all they were a bit overbaked even before the 30 minutes of the second bake were up.  Next, the glaze curdled and looked unappealing.  Worst of all, I found them to be rather bland.  The lemon flavor was too mild, and you couldn't taste the almond at all.   "Curdled" looking glaze It was still nice to bring them to the event because they were the only sweet treat there. Everyone said they loved them and I was very happy about that....
