How to Make Double Chocolate Biscotti

  1. Preheat oven to 325°F (160°C).
  2. In a medium bowl, lightly whisk together 2 large eggs and 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract. Set aside.
  3. In a large bowl, whisk together 3 cups all-purpose flour, ¾ cup unsweetened cocoa powder, 1 teaspoon baking soda, ½ teaspoon salt, 1 ½ cups granulated sugar, 2 tablespoons instant espresso powder, 1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips, and 1 cup hazelnuts (roughly chopped).
  4. With a paddle attachment, gradually add the egg mixture to the dry ingredients on low speed, mixing until just combined.
  5. Using a spatula, scrape down the sides of the bowl and ensure all ingredients are incorporated into the dough.
  6. On a lightly floured surface, divide the dough in half and shape each half into a 12-inch log.
  7. Place the logs on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
  8. Bake for 20-25 minutes, or until the edges are firm and the tops are cracked and no longer wet-looking. Let cool completely to room temperature.
  9. Reduce oven temperature to 300°F (150°C).
  10. Using a sharp knife, cut each log into ¾-inch thick slices.
  11. Arrange the biscotti slices, cut-side up, on a baking sheet.
  12. Bake for 15-20 minutes, or until the biscotti are completely dry and firm.
  13. Meanwhile, melt 6 ounces of white chocolate in a double boiler or microwave-safe bowl. Stir until smooth.
  14. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  15. Drizzle or spread melted white chocolate onto one side of each biscotti.
  16. Place the biscotti, white chocolate-side down, onto the prepared baking sheet to let the chocolate harden completely.
