Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 cups All-purpose flour
- 0.75 cup Granulated sugar
- 1 teaspoon Baking powder
- 0.25 teaspoon Salt
- 3 Large eggs
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 0.75 cup Ghirardelli semi-sweet chocolate chips
- 1 cup Chopped almonds (toasted)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat.
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt until well combined.
In a separate bowl, lightly beat the eggs and mix in the vanilla extract.
Make a well in the center of the dry ingredients and pour the egg mixture into it. Stir until all the ingredients come together into a dough. The mixture will be slightly sticky.
Fold in the Ghirardelli semi-sweet chocolate chips and toasted almonds, ensuring they are evenly distributed throughout the dough.
Transfer the dough onto a lightly floured surface. Divide it in half and shape each portion into a log about 12 inches long and 2 inches wide. Place the logs on the prepared baking sheet, leaving space between them as they will spread slightly during baking.
Bake the logs in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, or until they are golden brown and firm to the touch. Remove from the oven and allow to cool on the baking sheet for 10 minutes.
Transfer the logs to a cutting board. Using a serrated knife, slice them diagonally into 1/2-inch-thick biscotti pieces.
Place the biscotti slices cut-side down on the baking sheet. Return them to the oven and bake for 10-15 minutes, flipping them halfway, until they are lightly golden and crisp.
Remove the biscotti from the oven and transfer them to a wire rack to cool completely. Store in an airtight container for up to 1 week.
