How to Make Almond Chocolate Biscotti Using Cake Mix

1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Line baking sheets with parchment paper.
2. In a large mixing bowl, combine: 1 box (15.25 oz) chocolate cake mix, 1 cup all-purpose flour, ½ cup (1 stick) unsalted butter, softened, ½ cup chocolate syrup, 2 large eggs, 1 teaspoon vanilla extract, and 1 teaspoon almond extract.
3. Mix thoroughly until well combined.
4. Stir in 1 cup slivered almonds and ½ cup mini chocolate chips.
5. Divide the dough in half.
6. On the prepared baking sheets, shape each portion into a 12-inch long, 2-inch wide log.
7. Bake for 30-35 minutes, or until the logs are firm to the touch.
8. Remove from oven and let cool on baking sheets for 15 minutes.
9. Transfer logs to a cutting board.
10. Using a serrated knife, carefully cut each log diagonally into 1/2-inch thick slices.
11. Place the biscotti, cut-side down, back onto the baking sheets.
12. Bake for 10-15 minutes, or until golden brown and crisp.
13. While biscotti are baking, prepare the drizzle: In a small saucepan over low heat, melt ½ cup vanilla chips and 2 tablespoons shortening. Stir until smooth.
14. Once biscotti are completely cool, drizzle melted chocolate over the top.
15. Let the drizzle harden completely before storing.
16. Store in an airtight container at room temperature for up to a week.
