Irish Biscotti

This recipe is part of my Bailey's theme but once they were baked there really wasn't any trace of their flavor. Not that they weren't tasty still. So the key to these bad boys is to dunk them in some Bailey's-spiked coffee. I made these with cinnamon chips. If you're weary of them, go ahead and use chocolate, but I recommend cinnamon!
