I just tried a recipe very similar but no milk, no butter, 2 eggs and it was so difficult. I had to throw out half my almonds because they just wouldn't incorporate, the dough was and super difficult to cut after the first cook. Definitely trying this one next time! Cheers

Are cantucci and biscotti the same thing?
I have made biscotti countless times and this recipe is really similar. Plus the dough is baked twice, second time after slicing.

Not sure about using a table like that for preparing a cantucci
