Be Festive! {Recipe: Deck the Halls Biscotti}

Jump to Recipe -

I just read something that says there are 35 days until Christmas! Can you believe it? I’m going to continue focusing on Thanksgiving until next Friday, then it’s going to be all Christmas all the time around our house. It’s my absolute favorite holiday and I can’t wait!

For the first time ever I’ve already bought a couple of Christmas presents. I took advantage of the Erin Condren 50% off sale the other day and got my kids teachers some personalized desk pads. I thought that was a really great gift but wanted to add a little more. 

I’ve decided these Deck the Halls Biscotti from the Bright Ideas website would be great to give as well… a little something delicious and homemade along with something personalized just for them!

There are a lot of other fun and festive recipes to choose from featuring the holiday M&M’S® Brand Chocolate Candies. Make sure to check out their recipe page for more fun gift ideas or holiday treats!

For now, sit down with a hot cup of coffee and check out this festive Deck the Halls Biscotti recipe below! Enjoy!

    I love biscotti this time of year. My best friend from high school (who I have lost touch with in the last ten years) always gifted these during the holidays, so I can’t have a biscotti and not think of her! Love it!!

    I love the idea of giving biscotti to teachers! We have a mother’s day out thingy that we go to and I’ve been trying to dream up cookie plates to take as a thank you – these are DEFINITELY on it!

    These will work for Thanksgiving, too, just substitute the fall colored M&Ms. I can’t wait to make some.

    I picked Haley up the other day and she said it was the 63rd day of school. Already? How is that possible?? Before we know it, we’ll be talking about Superbowl food. Just want to stop time….I love this time of year <3

    I’m always looking for new ideas to bake with M&Ms other than throwing into a cookie. Did you see the new gingerbread ones at Walmart? I may have to try this idea with them!
