Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 0.5 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
- 0.75 cup granulated sugar
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 0.25 teaspoon salt
- 3 pieces large eggs
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 2 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
- 0.75 cup semisweet chocolate chips
- 0.75 cup chopped walnuts
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat.
In a medium mixing bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, cocoa powder, granulated sugar, baking powder, and salt.
In a separate bowl, beat the eggs, vanilla extract, and melted unsalted butter until well combined.
Gradually mix the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients, stirring until a sticky dough forms.
Add the semisweet chocolate chips and chopped walnuts to the dough, stirring until evenly incorporated.
Lightly flour your hands and divide the dough in half. Shape each half into a log approximately 10 inches long and 2 inches wide. Place the logs onto the prepared baking sheet, leaving space between them as they will spread slightly.
Bake the logs in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes or until the tops are firm and cracked. Remove them from the oven and let them cool for about 10 minutes.
Reduce the oven temperature to 300°F (150°C).
Using a sharp serrated knife, carefully slice the logs into 1/2-inch thick diagonal slices. Arrange the slices cut-side down on the baking sheet.
Bake the slices for 10 minutes, then flip them over and bake for an additional 10 minutes, or until dry and crisp.
Remove the biscotti from the oven and let them cool completely on a wire rack before serving or storing.
