Biscotti Al Cioccolato E Noce Double Chocolate Walnut Biscotti Recipes

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees
• Butter and flour a large baking sheet.
• In a bowl, whisk together flour, cocoa powder, baking soda and salt.
• In another bowl with an electric mixer beat together the butter and granulated sugar until light and fluffy. Add eggs and beat until mixed well. Stir in flour mixture to form a stiff dough. Stir in walnuts and chocolate chips.
• On the prepared baking sheet with floured hands, form dough into two slightly flattened logs, each 12 inches long and 2 inches wide, and sprinkle with confectioners' sugar. Bake logs for 35 minutes, or until slightly firm to the touch. Cool biscotti on the baking sheet for 5 minutes.
• On a cutting board, cut biscotti diagonally into 3/4 inch slices.
• Arrange biscotti, cut sides down, on baking sheet and bake until crisp, about 10 minutes.
• Cool biscotti on a rack. Keep the biscotti in air-tight containers for 1 week and, frozen, 1 month. Yields 30 biscotti.

Steps:

• In a large mixing bowl, cream butter and sugar with an electric mixer until light and fluffy. Gradually beat in cocoa and baking powder. Beat for 2 minutes. Beat in the eggs one at a time. Stir in flour by hand. Mix in white chocolate and chocolate chips. Cover dough, and chill for about 10 minutes.
• Preheat oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Divide dough into two parts, and roll each part into a 9 inch long log. Place logs on lightly greased cookie sheet, about 4 inches apart. Flatten slightly.
• Bake for 20 to 25 minutes, or until toothpick inserted in center comes out clean. Cool on cookie sheet for 5 minutes, then carefully transfer to a wire rack to cool for one hour.
• Cut each loaf into 1/2 inch wide diagonal slices. Place slices on an ungreased cookie sheet, and bake at 325 degrees F ( 165 degrees C) for 9 minutes. Turn cookies over, and bake for 7 to 9 minutes. Cool completely, then store in an airtight container.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 300°F Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper (waxed paper will not work, it will smoke.).
• In a food processor fitted with the metal blade, combine the chocolate and sugar and grind until the chocolate is very fine. Set aside.
• In a bowl, sift together the flour, cocoa powder, baking soda and salt. Set aside.
• In a mixing bowl combine the eggs and the vanilla. Beat at medium speed to blend.
• Reduce the speed to low, add the chocolate and flour mixtures and mix until a stiff dough forms, adding the walnuts when about half mixed.
• Transfer the dough to a floured surface and gather it together. Divide in half. Form each half into a log 12 inches long. (Give the logs plenty of space on both sides as the width of the logs doubles during baking.).
• Carefully transfer the logs to the prepared baking sheet, spacing them evenly.
• Pat to even up the shapes. Bake until almost firm to the touch, about 50 minutes. (I have found that 40 minutes was sufficient).
• Let cool for 10 minutes. (Do not let it cool for longer as the logs will become brittle and more difficult to slice without breaking.).
• Leave the oven set at 300°F.
• Using a spatula, transfer the logs to a work surface. Using a serrated knife, cut on the diagonal into slices 1/2 to 3/4 inch thick. Return the slices cut side down to the baking sheet.
• Bake for 25 minutes. (I baked mine 15 minutes and the biscotti were very crispy).
• Turn the slices over and bake until crispy and dry, about 25 minutes longer. (Again, I found 15 minutes to be good).
• Transfer the cookies to wire racks to cool.
• Store in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 1 month.

• Place on a lightly greased baking sheet and bake in a preheated 350* oven for 30 minutes.
• Cool on a wire rack and cut, slightly on the diagonal, into 1/2" slices.
• Reduce oven heat to 325* and bake, cut side down, for 10 minutes.
• Turn over and bake for an additional 10 minutes until crisp (centres may be slightly soft, but will harden up when cooled).
• Remove to wire rack to cool.
• Enjoy!
