What type of dessert do you make for someone who doesn’t like birthday cake?
Funfetti Biscotti, of course!
I know a lot, I mean a lot of people who don’t like cake! Pie, ice cream, and cookies are all good, they just don’t like cake. So, each year when their birthday comes around I try to change up the dessert a little. This year? Birthday Funfetti Biscotti!
