Indulgent Chocolate Biscotti Delight
Welcome to lovewithrecipes.com, where we’re about to embark on a journey to create a delectable treat that combines the rich essence of chocolate with the irresistible crunch of biscotti! 🍫✨
Ingredients:
| Quantity | Ingredient |
|---|---|
| 1 cup | All-purpose flour |
| 1/2 cup | Granulated sugar |
| 1/2 cup | Cocoa powder |
| 2 | Eggs or egg substitute |
| 2 tsp | Baking powder |
| 3/4 tsp | Salt |
| 1/4 cup | Flavoring (of your choice) |
| Splash of liquor or water (as needed) | |
| Semisweet chocolate for drizzling (optional) |
Instructions:
-
Begin this chocolatey adventure by combining the all-purpose flour, granulated sugar, cocoa powder, baking powder, and salt in a bowl, creating a symphony of dry ingredients that will form the base of our biscotti.
-
In a separate bowl, whip up a tantalizing mixture of flavoring (choose your favorite!) and eggs or egg substitute, ensuring a harmonious blend that will infuse our biscotti with lusciousness.
-
Now, it’s time to unite the wet and dry worlds! Pour the egg mixture into the bowl of dry ingredients. Add a splash of liquor or water as needed to achieve a delightful, sticky consistency. Remember, the magic lies in the perfect texture.
-
Don’t let stiffness cramp our style! Ensure the mixture is just right; a too-stiff consistency won’t spread properly. Once achieved, place this delightful glob on a greased cookie sheet, forming a log approximately 15 inches long and 1 1/2 – 2 inches wide.
-
Bake this masterpiece at 350°F for 25 minutes, letting the aroma of chocolate fill your kitchen. After baking, remove from the oven and allow it to cool for a few minutes.
-
Time to slice into perfection! Diagonally cut the log into 1/2 – 3/4 inch slices. I got 18 pieces from mine, but you can adjust based on your desired biscotti size.
-
Now, lay the slices on their sides and return them to the oven, preheated to 300°F, for an additional 15 minutes. Turn them over and let them dance in the oven for another 10-15 minutes until they achieve the desired crispiness.
-
The grand finale! If you’re feeling a bit extravagant, drizzle a small amount of semisweet chocolate over the cooled biscotti. I used about 2 tablespoons for all the cookies, adding a touch of luxury that amounts to approximately 6 grams of fat for the entire recipe or 1/3 gram of fat per heavenly biscotti.
