Biscotti Tutti Frutti

A recipe from Sicily

Champagne cookies at Joseph's Bakery of Medford are swirled with green, pink, and white batter, and covered with jimmies. They're great-looking, delicious, and made with margarine to keep your cholesterol down. Joseph is a native of Sicily and has been a baker for over 35 years; he refrigerates his batter (they're also called icebox cookies), slices it, and bakes the cookies when needed, which at Joseph's is just about every day. They're $3.99 per pound. Joseph's Bakery is at 377 Main Street in Medford at the intersection of Main and Harvard Streets. Call 393-9858.
