Chocolate biscotti are crunchy Italian cookies, perfect for dipping in coffee or tea. This recipe creates a rich, chocolatey treat with a satisfying snap.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 3/4 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1/2 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 cup (1 stick) unsalted butter, softened
  • 1 cup granulated sugar
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract (alcohol-free)
  • 1 cup chocolate chips (dark or semi-sweet)

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. In a medium bowl, whisk together flour, cocoa powder, baking powder, and salt.
  3. In a large bowl, cream together butter and sugar until light and fluffy.
  4. Beat in eggs one at a time, then stir in vanilla extract.
  5. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined.
  6. Fold in chocolate chips.
  7. Divide the dough in half. On the prepared baking sheet, shape each half into a log about 10 inches long and 2 inches wide.
  8. Bake for 25-30 minutes, or until firm to the touch.
  9. Remove from oven and let cool on the baking sheet for 10 minutes.
  10. Reduce oven temperature to 300°F (150°C).
  11. Transfer logs to a cutting board. Using a serrated knife, slice each log diagonally into 1/2-inch thick pieces.
  12. Lay the slices cut-side down on the baking sheet.
  13. Bake for another 15-20 minutes, flipping halfway through, until dry and crisp.
  14. Let cool completely on a wire rack.

Notes

  • For extra flavor, add 1/2 teaspoon of almond extract with the vanilla.
  • Store biscotti in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 2 weeks.
  • Biscotti can be dipped in melted chocolate for an extra decadent treat.
