Zubereitung von Chocolate Almond Biscotti
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- Toast 1 ½ cups almonds. Set aside ¾ cup for grinding and ¾ cup for slicing.
- Pulse ¾ cup toasted almonds in a food processor until finely ground.
- In a large bowl, cream together the softened butter and sugar until light and fluffy.
- Whisk together cocoa powder, baking powder, baking soda, and salt in a separate bowl.
- Gradually add the dry ingredients to the butter mixture, mixing until just combined.
- Beat in the eggs and almond extract.
- Stir in as much of the flour as you can using a mixer. Then, stir in the remaining flour by hand along with the ground almonds and sliced almonds.
- On a piece of parchment paper, shape the dough into two 14-inch long rolls.
- Place rolls on the prepared baking sheet, leaving at least 5 inches between them. Flatten slightly.
- Bake for 25-30 minutes, or until a wooden skewer inserted into the center comes out clean.
- Let cool on the baking sheet for 1 hour.
- Using a sharp knife, cut each roll diagonally into ½-inch thick slices.
- Place the slices, cut sides down, on ungreased baking sheets.
- Bake for 8 minutes.
- Flip the slices and bake for another 7-9 minutes, or until the biscotti are dry and crisp.
- Remove from baking sheets and transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.
- For optional glaze: Place semi-sweet and white chocolate chips in separate microwave-safe bowls. Add 1 teaspoon of shortening to each bowl.
- Microwave on high for 1 minute, stirring once. If necessary, microwave in 15-second intervals until melted and smooth.
- Dip or drizzle the cooled biscotti with the melted chocolate.
