Hot Chocolate Chestnut Biscotti

Description

Dunk your hot chocolate cookie in your mug of cocoa for a double hit! The chestnuts were my little homage to the "Italian" side of the family and they add a little bit of buttery texture and mildness compared to the rich cocoa mix, Kahlua and black pepper I tossed in.
