How to Make Gingerbread Biscotti

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
  2. Lightly spoon flour into measuring cup, leveling off with a straight edge.
  3. In a large bowl, whisk together 3 cups all-purpose flour, 1/3 cup granulated sugar, 2 teaspoons baking powder, and 1 teaspoon pumpkin pie spice.
  4. Add 1 cup (2 sticks) unsalted butter, softened, 1/2 cup molasses, 2 large eggs, and 1 large egg yolk to the dry ingredients.
  5. Beat with an electric mixer until well blended and a dough forms.
  6. Divide the dough in half.
  7. Shape each half into a 10-inch roll.
  8. Place the rolls onto a large ungreased baking sheet.
  9. Flatten each roll into a 10x3-inch rectangle.
  10. Brush the rectangles with 1 large egg white, lightly beaten.
  11. Sprinkle each rectangle evenly with 1 tablespoon granulated sugar.
  12. Bake for 20 minutes, or until lightly browned.
  13. Cool on baking sheets for 15 minutes.
  14. Using a serrated knife, cut each rectangle crosswise into 1/2-inch thick slices.
  15. Place the slices, cut-side down, back onto the baking sheet.
  16. Return to the oven and bake for 10 minutes.
  17. Flip the cookies.
  18. Bake for an additional 5-10 minutes, or until crisp and deep golden brown.
  19. Immediately remove from baking sheets and place on wire racks to cool completely (about 15 minutes).
  20. While cookies cool, melt 6 ounces of white chocolate and 4 ounces of dark chocolate in separate small saucepans over low heat, stirring constantly until smooth.
  21. Drizzle melted chocolate over cooled biscotti.
