The Best Brownie Biscotti
Brownie Almond Biscotti are a sweet and chocolaty twist on the classic Italian cookie. Make a batch to dunk in your morning coffee.
Ingredients
- 1/2 cup butter melted
- 3 eggs
- 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
- 2-1/2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1-1/3 cups sugar
- 3/4 cup unsweetened cocoa
- 2 teaspoons baking powder
- 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1 cup unblanched almonds toasted and coarsely chopped
- 1/2 cup miniature semisweet chocolate chips
Instructions
Preheat oven to 325 degrees.
In the bowl of a mixer, combine the butter, eggs and vanilla. Mix well. In a separate bowl, mix together the flour, sugar, cocoa, salt, baking powder and baking soda. Gradually add to butter mixture just until combined – dough will be crumbly.
Turn dough onto a lightly floured surface and knead in almonds and chocolate chips. Divide dough in half. On an ungreased baking sheet, shape each portion into a 12-in. x 3-in. log, leaving 3 in. between the logs.
Bake at 325° for 30-35 minutes or until tops are cracked. Cool for 15 minutes. Transfer to a cutting board and cut diagonally with a serrated knife into 1/2-in. slices.
Place cut side down on ungreased baking sheets. Bake for 15 to 20 minutes or until firm and dry. Remove to wire racks to cool.
Loved this recipe! These are the first biscotti I’ve made that are not crumbly after the second baking. They didn´t last more than 3 days though so here I am making them again.
