I was lucky enough to receive a last minute invite to a fab cocktail party the other night. Of course I was attending and as everybody knows you can't show up without a hostess gift. I ran to my gift closet, yes, there were a few options available to me in there. I also look in the pantry as many times a tasty food item is calling - sauce, spice, oil, jam, stuffed olives (I like to make my own blue cheese stuffed olives, so yummy in a slightly dirty martini of course). Well this afternoon I had just made some white chocolate almond biscotti's!! So easy....
When next at the store buy a container of almond biscotti's, large or small and buy some white chocolate chips. Melt the white chocolate in the microwave, 1 1/2 minutes on medium high, stir continue to heat until melted. Dip half of the biscotti in the white chocolate and place on wax paper until dry. Place several in cellophane goodie bag tie with pretty bow and apply label if you have one. If not , no worries, the ribbon is decorative enough. Your hostess will love them and they are technically homemade!!! hurray for you.
Oh and by the way the Party of Fabulously Amazing...I met several new fun loving, creative and intelligent individuals. It's going to be a festive holiday season, hope yours is as well!!!
