How to Make Christmas Low Fat White Chocolate Walnut Brownie Biscotti

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
  2. In a medium bowl, whisk together the dry ingredients: flour, baking powder, salt, and cocoa powder.
  3. In a separate bowl, cream together the softened butter and sugars until light and fluffy. Beat in the egg, egg white, and vanilla extract until well combined.
  4. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined. Be careful not to overmix.
  5. Fold in the white chocolate chips and walnuts.
  6. Divide the dough in half. Shape each half into a rectangle approximately 3.5 inches wide and 8 inches long. Place them a few inches apart on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
  7. In a small bowl, whisk together 1 egg white with 1 teaspoon of water. Brush the tops of the dough logs with the egg wash and sprinkle generously with coarse red and green sugars.
  8. Bake for 25-30 minutes, or until the tops are lightly cracked.
  9. Remove from oven and let cool for 10 minutes.
  10. Reduce oven temperature to 275°F (135°C).
  11. Using a sharp serrated knife, slice each log diagonally into 3/4-inch thick slices. Arrange the biscotti cut-side up on the baking sheet.
  12. Bake for 20 minutes.
  13. Flip the biscotti and bake for another 15-20 minutes, or until golden brown and crisp.
  14. Turn off the oven and leave the biscotti in the oven with the door slightly ajar to cool completely.
