Pecan Biscotti

A while back I purchased a Southern Living Farmers Market Cookbook. It has been a great investment and I have found all kinds of wonderful recipes in it. I recently tried the Pecan Biscotti. Of course, I didn’t follow the recipe exact. I adjusted amounts of vanilla and pecans, but overall this is the recipe from the book.
