Wikipedia: Biscotti
Biscotti (/bɪˈskɒti/; Italian pronunciation: [biˈskɔtti]; English: twice-cooked), known also as cantucci ([kanˈtuttʃi]), are Italian almond biscuits that originated in the Tuscan city of Prato. They are twice-baked, oblong-shaped, dry, crunchy, and may be dipped in a drink, traditionally Vin Santo.
 
Wikipedia: Crouton
A crouton /ˈkruːtɒn/ is a piece of sautéed or rebaked bread, often cubed and seasoned. Croutons are used to add texture and flavor to salads—notably the Caesar salad—as an accompaniment to soups and stews, or eaten as a snack food.

Eating biscotti for the first time. I always assumed it was stale bread, kind of like a crouton. Apparently, it’s cookie-based. #newsflash
