Chocolate biscotti



Please refer to classic biscotti d'anice for a more detailed description of forming/baking/cooling/slicing/re-baking - unless you know the scoop already! :)

Preheat the oven to 350ยบ - line a couple baking sheets w/parchment.

In a mixing bowl, combine all ingredients and mix well:

9 T soft butter
1-1/2 C. sugar
3 lg. eggs
1 tsp. vanilla
1/4 tsp. salt
1-1/2 tsp. baking soda
3/4 C. cocoa powder
3 C. flour
Knead in 1 C mini (semisweet) chocolate chips

Divide the dough into 4-6 equal sections - form into rectangles (2" wide, 1/2" high) on baking sheets, leaving a couple inches between the rectangles (2 on each sheet).

Beat one egg WHITE.  Brush lightly over the top of each rectangle, sprinkle w/coarse white sugar.  Bake for 20-25 min. until it's on the firm side.  Remove from oven.  Cool for 5 minutes.  With a sharp knife, cut into 1/2" slices.  Lay all the biscotti onto their sides and put back in the oven. Bake another 10-15 minutes (depending on how firm you like them).  Remove from oven.
