Who doesn’t like that, right?? This week is a little crazier than usual. I’m gearing up to head to SLC for the Build Your Blog Conference! And I am seriously so excited, and I can’t wait to meet so many of you there!! This is my first blog conference “season,” and I’m crazy nervous about it! I mean, nervous in a good way, of course. But… still nervous. Like I keep going through my checklist about a million times trying to get ready… So far, I’ve… Broken in a new pair of jeans. Don’t laugh, it was not easy! Ordered TWO sets of adorable business cards. Learned that I do, in fact, need to bring a media kit. Bought a laptop that doesn’t need to be plugged in to work. Acquired 3 roomies and a rental car. Found baby sitters for the times my husband has class or work. Outlined a meal plan for the rest of the week and stuck it on the fridge. Trimmed, filed, and buffed my nails (waiting until tomorrow to paint– don’t want any chips for this weekend)! Things I still have yet to do… Get the lasagna ready and in the fridge for Chris. Sew a new laptop cover (my new one is bigger). Actually make said media kit. Pack. Change my rental time from 9am to 8am. Decide what I’m going to say when I speak at the conference…. (KIDDING…. er… maybe…) Schedule out posts for while I’m gone (eeek! Including two sponsored posts!) Write two guests posts for friends (already late on those– sorry gals). Clear out my inbox (will take at least 2 hours) and set the away message for the weekend. Start and finish a blog design. Start and finish an Etsy banner design. Participate in all of my FB blogger support groups. Cut out fruit into heart shapes for my daughter’s preschool Valentine’s day party. Address all of my daughter’s valentines. One of those lists definitely seems longer than the other…. Good thing tomorrow is a preschool morning!! Anyway. I hope you all are having a fantastic week and looking forward to Valentine’s day!! These biscotti are SUPER easy to make (they use a cake mix!), just be sure to make them the night before so they have time to cool completely. And for those of you heading to BYBC– see you soon!!!!!!!! Continue to Content Red Velvet Biscotti Print Ingredients 1 red velvet cake mix 1 cup all-purpose flour 1/2 cup butter, melted 2 eggs 1 teaspoon vanilla Instructions Preheat oven to 350 f.

Yikes girl, you have a lot on your plate! I wish I was going to hang out with all of you this weekend!! BlogHer food will be here soon though! these biscotti sound delicious, love that it’s from a cake mix! thanks for the shout out on my recipe. Reply
This biscotti sounds really good and I love how easy it is to make. I have never made biscotti before because I was always thought it was hard, now I will have to try it. I hope you have a great time at the conference and that you get everything done before you go! Reply
Bah! I know, I need to go in an remove those! It’s optional to add white chips in if you want, and that line of instructions is from the original duncan hines recipe (which I forgot to source, because I’m so crazy getting ready to leave for out of town!). But I will make the corrections soon! Reply
I think you’re long overdue for making the correction on this recipe now! if I hadn’t bothered to look at the comments section, I too would have been wondering “what chips?” Please – be professional and correct the recipe once and for all – we’re not all professional bakers. Reply
Breaking news: I’m not a professional either. Sorry to disappoint. I do the best I can here, and managing my time is a beast (just like it is for everyone else). But hey, the squeaky wheel gets the grease this time, so props to you on that– it’s updated. Hope that makes you feel better!
Thank you kindly. And as far as making me feel better by your doing this minor correction, it should actually make YOU feel better b/c it means that (1) people are interested in and reading your blog and notice what you write (2) this action is now off your plate forever, and (3) it helps everyone who is trying to make your recipe be able to do so with full confidence!

What is the yield of biscotti for this recipe? 3 dozen – 4 dozen? Just wondering. Please post. Thanks for sharing! Reply
Thanks so much for this recipe! I’ve made it a number of times, adding my own tweak here and now (I love adding chopped pistachios to offset the sweetness of red velvet, plus the complements of green and red). My family loves dark, roasted coffee and the red velvet biscotti pairs nicely. I’ve shared this link time and again. Much obliged! Reply
