Star of David Mandelbrot: To construct the Star of David, you'll need varying lengths of biscotti. For this, divide dough into 3 equal portions, then shape each portion into a quadrilateral that is 9 inches at the bottom, 4 inches at the top, and 12 inches on each side.

Dough

Bake as directed in step 4 above. Beginning at the 9-inch bottom, cut each portion into 1/2-inch-thick slices, then bake as directed in step 5 above. Frost and let stand 10 minutes. To assemble the star, begin with the 3 longest pieces of biscotti, and form a triangle, which is the base of the star. Continue to stack biscotti, using the longest pieces first.

Recommended wine: Chianti, Trebbiano, Verdicchio

Italian works really well with Chianti, Trebbiano, and Verdicchio. Italians know food and they know wine. Trebbiano and Verdicchio are Italian white wines that pair well with fish and white meat, while Chianti is a great Italian red for heavier, bolder dishes. You could try Casan Emma Chianti Classico. Reviewers quite like it with a 4.8 out of 5 star rating and a price of about 21 dollars per bottle.
