Vegan Cocoa Pistachio Biscotti

I wanted to bake something which can handle some travelling and these biscotti were just perfect to take on the go. I found this recipe online whilst looking for a paleo desert recipe including pistachios. I immediately thought this recipe was for my type of cooking as it involved few simple steps and clean ingredients.

Baking these biscotti left our house smelling of cocoa and even after I packed them up I kept going back and forth to smell the jar. These are simply delicious and I found them a great accompaniment with tea.

A must try!
