How do I make my biscotti softer?

I made a simple flower, baking soda, sugar, eggs, and nuts biscotti today, and it was way over cooked, so now it feels like i'm trying to bite into a brick. Is there any way to fix it so it's edible?

How do I make my biscotti softer?
Seal it in a container with a moist piece of bread or a slice of apple. The apple might make it absorb a bit of apple flavor though.
Reply:dip them in your coffee or other hot drink!!!! theyre supposed to be hard...and i dont like them....so good luck to you
Reply:Biscotti is supposed to be hard, it is meant to dip into your coffee.
Reply:biscotti literally means twice cooked,and they're meant to be quite hard. The traditional way to eat them is to dip them in coffee or espresso. That should soften them up a bit.
Reply:Biscotti is not soft, they are a dunking cookie
Reply:Once they are already baked (or overbaked in this case), try putting them in a cookie tin or jar with a slice of bread. Leave them overnight and see if they've softened up any. This is a very old-fashioned remedy, usually it's the other way around, folks looking to avoid cookies getting softer or losing their 'crisp'...! 8-)
