How to Make Chocolate Dipped Almond Anise Biscotti
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
- In a large bowl, whisk together 2 1/2 cups all-purpose flour, 1 cup granulated sugar (or sugar substitute), 2 teaspoons baking powder, 1 teaspoon anise seeds, 1 cup sliced almonds, and 1/2 teaspoon salt.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together 2 large eggs, 1 teaspoon vanilla extract, and 1/4 cup milk.
- Gradually add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients, mixing until just combined. Knead the dough gently a few times until it forms a ball.
- Divide the dough in half.
- On a lightly floured surface, roll each half into a 12-inch long log, about 1 1/2 inches in diameter.
- Transfer the logs to a greased baking sheet.
- Flatten each log to about 1-inch thickness.
- Bake for 30 minutes, or until the logs are slightly risen and firm to the touch.
- Remove from oven and let cool on a wire rack for 15 minutes.
- Transfer the cooled logs to a cutting board.
- Using a sharp serrated knife, cut the logs diagonally into 3/4-inch thick slices.
- Arrange the biscotti slices in a single layer on ungreased baking sheets.
- Bake for 10-13 minutes, or until crisp and golden brown. For chewier biscotti, bake for a shorter time (e.g., 20 minutes initially, then 5 minutes after flipping).
- Let cool completely on the baking sheets.
- In a microwave-safe bowl, combine 6 ounces semi-sweet chocolate chips and 1 teaspoon vegetable oil.
- Microwave in 30-second intervals, stirring after each, until the chocolate is completely melted and smooth.
- Dip each biscotti halfway into the melted chocolate.
- Place the dipped biscotti on wax paper-lined tray and let stand at room temperature or refrigerate for 15 minutes, or until the chocolate has hardened.
- Store in an airtight container at room temperature.
