Helloooooo there!
If you're looking for a chocolate-y delicious, nutty biscotti recipe, you're in the RIGHT place! I made these a couple weeks ago and let me tell you, these babies are a sinch to make and fun to dip in your coffee/tea/hot cocoa.....and they make for great gifts, too!
Enjoy and have fun!
Time: ~1 hour Makes: about 2 dozen biscotti
Recipe Inspiration: laughingspatula.com
Ingredients
• 1 cup whole wheat flour
• 1 cup all-purpose flour
• ½ cup unsweetened dark cocoa powder
• 1 teaspoon baking soda
• ¼ teaspoon salt
• 3 large eggs
• 1 cup sugar
• 1½ teaspoons vanilla extract
• 1 cup toasted nuts (I used slivered almonds and coarsely chopped walnuts)
• ½ to 1 cup dark chocolate chips, make it as chocolate-y as you want!
Instructions
1. Preheat the oven to 350F degrees.
2. In a small bowl, sift together the flour, cocoa powder, baking soda, and salt.
3. In a large bowl, beat together the 3 eggs, sugar, and vanilla extract. Gradually stir in the dry ingredients. (if dough seems a bit sticky and dry - add a few tablespoons of water so that the dough is thick, but not dry
4. Mix in the nuts and the chocolate chips until the dough holds together.
5. Spray a baking sheet with olive or coconut oil. Divide the dough in half. On a lightly floured surface, roll the dough into two logs the length of the baking sheet. Transfer the logs onto the baking sheet, evenly spaced apart.
6. Gently flatten the tops of the logs and bake for 25 minutes, until the dough feels firm to the touch.
7. Remove the cookie dough from the oven and cool 15 minutes. On a cutting board, use a serrated bread knife to diagonally cut the cookies into ½-inches slices. Lay the cookies cut side down on baking sheets and return to the oven for about 20 minutes, turning the baking sheet midway during baking, until the cookies feel pretty firm.
8. Once baked, cool the cookies completely then store in an airtight container for up to two weeks.
Extra deliciousness: melt a small bowl of chocolate then dip the biscotti halfway. Place on wax paper or plate to cool completely.
