Crunchy, flavorful mocha almond biscotti are perfect dipped in your morning coffee.

Ingredients

  • 2 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 3/4 cup sugar
  • 1 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
  • 1/4 cup unsweetened cocoa
  • 2 tablespoons espresso powder
  • 1 cup slivered almonds, toasted
  • 1 cup semi-sweet mini chocolate chips
  • ½ cup dark chocolate chunks
  • 3 large eggs
  • 2 teaspoons pure vanilla extract

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 350*F. Prepare a baking sheet by lining it with parchment paper.
  • In a large mixing bowl, combine flour, sugar, baking powder, cocoa powder, espresso powder, toasted almonds, chocolate chips and chocolate chunks.
  • In separate smaller bowl, whisk together eggs and vanilla.
  • Combine wet and dry ingredients. This is a very dry dough, so start with a spoon, and if necessary, use your hands to fully combine the ingredients.
  • Form the dough into two flat logs on the parchment paper lined cookie sheet. It spreads a little, but not much, so make the logs slightly smaller than the width that you would like your biscotti to be.
  • Bake for 25-30 minutes. Let the biscotti cool completely before slicing into 1/4 to 1/2 inch thick slices.
  • Lay the slices flat on a baking sheet (you can use the same one, with the parchment), and bake for 7-10 minutes, flip each one over, and then continue to bake for an additional 7-10 minutes. Cool completely on wire rack before storing in air tight container.

    These look ridiculous! I don’t like the “plain” (aka, almond) biscotti, especially when they are rock hard but the mocha flavor sounds fantastic!! Love the pretty ribbon too ;)
