Hi Everyone!
My Son sent me some biscotti. Now I like biscotti in just about any flavor. However, this box was different and I am sorry to say not very good. They were made more like short fat bread and the flavors were not as advertised. Nevertheless, nothing goes to waste here. I also had some left over granola that I made last week, so why not put the two together to make sort of a flour. Welllahh!!
I put the granola and 3 of the biscotti into the food processor.
It came out perfectly for what I wanted.
Then I made a basic oat meal cookie recipe. I did add less sugar because the biscotti/granola mixture is sweet.
When the mixture felt right
I added the b/g mixture to finish off the batter.
I will say OMG! some of the best cookies I have ever made.
Now for the biscotti. These came from Granny Bella's off of amazon. I give them a rating of "F" they are so hard you can not bite into them. I dunked one into my hot water and there is absolutely no flavor. I did tell my Son so he could give a not so good review. I am just glad that I did find a use for them and that I didn't have to throw them away.
I hate wasting any kind of food, especially these days.

You were very clever to use some of the biscotti to make a BETTER cookie!

They look so nice all laid out in the box too.. i'm so glad to found a way to breathe new life into them, those cookies do look quite scrummy. Enjoy.. i'm sure you have hee hee.

That's too bad the biscotti were a bust. I hate wasting things also and good for you to put them to good use. Have a great holiday Nicole, even though I believe you said you don't really celebrate.
Biscotti is something I love. It's too bad that was not up to your standards, but it sounds like you turned a bad product into a wonderful cookie. Congrats on saving your biscotti, because I'm like you and hate wasting food.
You're so inventive Nicole!!! Great idea! :) Wishing you a very Merry Christmas!!! xx
They look yummy, pity I can't put my hand in the screen and try one.
Awesome food save!! excellent idea for making into flour
Merry Christmas
You were creative in your adapting of them. I doubt I'd have thought of that. Congrats! .
Best you could do with this, did you share with your Son?
Merry Christmas!
They look so good, very colorful. Yum! 😛
You are so clever! I would probably gave them to the squirrels! LOL! Big Hugs!
