Ingredients
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 1/3 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
- 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
- 1/4 teaspoon baking soda
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 cup granulated sugar
- 2 large eggs
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1/2 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips
- 1/4 cup chopped nuts (optional)
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- In a mixing bowl, combine the all-purpose flour, cocoa powder, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. Whisk the dry ingredients together until well mixed.
- In another bowl, beat the granulated sugar and eggs together until the mixture is thick and pale. This should take about 2-3 minutes.
- Add the vanilla extract to the egg mixture and mix well.
- Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture, stirring until just combined. Avoid overmixing.
- Fold in the chocolate chips and nuts, if using.
- Transfer the dough onto the prepared baking sheet and shape it into a log about 12 inches long and 3 inches wide.
- Bake the log in the preheated oven for 25 minutes or until firm to the touch.
- Remove the biscotti from the oven and let it cool for about 10 minutes. Then, slice the log diagonally into 1/2-inch thick pieces.
- Place the biscotti pieces back on the baking sheet with the cut sides facing up. Bake for an additional 15-20 minutes, until the biscotti are dry and crisp.
- Allow the biscotti to cool completely on a wire rack before enjoying.
