How to Make Cinnamon Mocha Biscotti

  1. Preheat oven to 325°F (160°C) using the convection bake setting.
  2. In a large bowl, cream together 1 cup (2 sticks) softened unsalted butter, ¾ cup granulated sugar, and ½ cup packed brown sugar until light and fluffy. Add 1 tablespoon instant espresso powder or 2 tablespoons strong brewed coffee, and mix until combined.
  3. Add 2 large eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition.
  4. Stir in 1 teaspoon vanilla extract.
  5. In a separate bowl, whisk together 3 cups all-purpose flour, 1 teaspoon baking powder, ½ teaspoon salt, and 1 tablespoon ground cinnamon.
  6. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined. Do not overmix.
  7. Fold in 1 cup chopped pecans, ½ cup semi-sweet chocolate morsels, and ¼ cup cinnamon chips.
  8. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  9. Transfer the dough to the prepared baking sheet and shape it into a large rectangle, about 1-inch thick.
  10. Bake for 25 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden and the biscotti is firm to the touch.
  11. Remove from oven and let cool for 10 minutes.
  12. Using a serrated knife, carefully cut the dough into ½-inch thick slices.
  13. Arrange the slices, cut-side down, on the parchment-lined baking sheet.
  14. Return to the oven and bake for 8 minutes.
  15. Flip the biscotti and bake for another 8 minutes, or until golden brown and crisp.
  16. Remove from oven and let cool completely on a wire rack before storing in an airtight container.
