Coffee Macadamia Nut Biscotti Recipes

Steps:

• Pulse the cream cheese, 1/2 cup granulated sugar, the vanilla and salt in a food processor until smooth. Add the flour and butter; pulse until the dough just comes together. Divide among 3 sheets of plastic wrap; shape into disks. Wrap and chill until firm, at least 1 hour.
• Whisk the remaining 1/4 cup granulated sugar, the brown sugar and cinnamon in a bowl; set aside. Let the dough soften slightly at room temperature, about 5 minutes. Working with 1 disk at a time, dust the dough with flour and roll out into a 9-inch round between 2 pieces of parchment. (If the dough gets too soft, return to the refrigerator.)
• Line 2 baking sheets with parchment paper. Brush each round of dough with the beaten egg, leaving a 1-inch border (refrigerate the remaining beaten egg). Sprinkle each with 1 tablespoon instant coffee, 1/4 cup nuts and 3 tablespoons of the cinnamon sugar; press into the dough. Slice each round into 12 wedges. Starting from the wide ends, tightly roll up the wedges. Arrange 2 inches apart on the baking sheets. Refrigerate until firm, 30 minutes.
• Position racks in the upper and middle thirds of the oven; preheat to 350 degrees F. Brush the cookies with the remaining beaten egg, then sprinkle with the remaining cinnamon sugar. Bake, switching the pans halfway through, until lightly browned, about 30 minutes. Let cool completely on the baking sheets.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven 350 F and line a baking sheet with parchment and set aside.
• Pulse the flour, sugar, espresso powder, baking powder and salt in a food processor until combined. Add the butter and pulse until the mixture looks like sand.
• Whisk the eggs, 1 tablespoon water and vanilla together in a large bowl until well mixed then add the flour mixture and stir until a crumbly dough forms. Press together and knead to a moist, uniform dough. Knead in the macadamia nuts.
• Divide the dough in half and shape each into an 11-by-2-inch log on the prepared baking sheet, keeping 3-inches between the logs. Brush each log with egg white and sprinkle all over with sugar. Bake for 30 minutes.
• Cool the logs for 5 minutes on the baking sheets and then transfer to a cutting board. Cut 1/2-inch thick slices using a sharp serrated knife. Return to the baking sheet and bake again, turning halfway though, until firm and browned, 25 minutes more. Transfer to a wire rack to cool. Store at room temperature in an airtight container for up to 2 weeks.

Steps:

• Preheat oven 350F. Pulse flour, 2/3 cup sugar, espresso powder, baking powder, and salt in a food processor. Add butter and pulse until mixture is sandy. Transfer to a large bowl.
• Whisk eggs, water, and vanilla in a small bowl; stir into flour mixture until a crumbly dough forms. Press together and knead to a moist, uniform dough. Knead in cashews.
• Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Divide dough in half and place on prepared baking sheet. Shape dough into two 11 by 2-inch logs, keeping 3 inches between logs. Brush each log with egg white and sprinkle 2 teaspoons sugar over top and sides of each. Bake for 30 minutes.
• Cool biscotti for 5 minutes on baking sheet. Transfer logs to a cutting board and, cut 1/2-inch thick slices using a sharp serrated knife. Lay on baking sheet and bake, turning halfway through, for 25 minutes. Transfer to a wire rack to cool. Store in an airtight container for up to 2 weeks.
