Biscotti Di Greve (Orange Almond Biscotti)

I have been making this for years for gifts. One year I din't and everyone griped. It is such an easy recipe, even tho it takes longer to oven dry than recipe says. biscs do harden more after cooling. I always use parchment paper for easy cleanup and pack away weeks prior and freeze unitl I ship. Send with tea--what a gift!!
