Cocoa Krispies Biscotti

This recipe came from a printed out coupon feeder at the grocery store and i just have to try it. the print out is so small i have to enter it before actually making this recipe. *updated 8/31/11 - loved the flavor of this biscotti and did not find it overly sweet. the one thing i recommend is crushing the cereal a bit before stirring in to make binding the dough easier. very easy to prepare for a biscotti recipe.
