Ingredients
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 1/3 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
- 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 4 tablespoons unsalted butter, softened
- 3/4 cup granulated sugar
- 2 large eggs
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1/2 cup semisweet chocolate chips
- 1/2 cup chopped walnuts or pecans
Directions
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, cocoa powder, baking powder, and salt.
- In a separate large bowl, cream together the softened butter and granulated sugar until light and fluffy.
- Beat in the eggs, one at a time, followed by the vanilla extract.
- Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined.
- Fold in the chocolate chips and chopped nuts.
- Transfer the dough onto the prepared baking sheet and shape it into a log, about 12 inches long and 3 inches wide.
- Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, or until slightly firm to the touch.
- Remove from the oven and let the log cool for 15 minutes. Reduce the oven temperature to 325°F (160°C).
- Transfer the cooled log onto a cutting board and slice it diagonally into 1/2-inch thick pieces.
- Place the sliced biscotti back onto the baking sheet, cut side down.
- Bake for an additional 15-20 minutes, or until the biscotti are dry and crispy.
- Remove from the oven and let them cool completely on a wire rack before serving.
