Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 0.3333 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 0.25 teaspoon salt
- 0.75 cup granulated sugar
- 0.25 cup brown sugar
- 4 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
- 2 whole large eggs
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 0.5 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips
- 0.5 cup chopped nuts (e.g., walnuts or almonds)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper.
In a medium bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, cocoa powder, baking powder, and salt. Set aside.
In a large bowl, beat the granulated sugar, brown sugar, and melted butter until well combined.
Add the eggs and vanilla extract to the sugar mixture, and whisk until smooth.
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until a soft dough forms.
Fold in the chocolate chips and chopped nuts until evenly distributed.
Divide the dough into two equal portions. On the prepared baking sheet, shape each portion into a log about 10 inches long and 3 inches wide.
Bake the logs in the preheated oven for 25 minutes, or until firm to the touch. Remove from the oven and allow to cool on the baking sheet for 15 minutes.
Once cooled, transfer the logs to a cutting board. Using a serrated knife, slice them diagonally into 3/4-inch-thick biscotti pieces.
Place the biscotti slices back on the baking sheet, cut-side down. Bake for an additional 10 minutes, then flip the biscotti over and bake for another 10 minutes, or until crisp and dry.
Allow the biscotti to cool completely on a wire rack before serving or storing in an airtight container.
