NUTELLA® BISCOTTI
Subtly sweet from chocolate chips, Nutella®, and sugar, these twice-baked cookies get added crunch from toasted hazelnuts and melt to perfection in your mouth. They're easy to package and give as a gift to complement purchased coffee beans or a hot chocolate mix and can be served on a hot chocolate board spread during the holidays. Dunk in coffee, tea, or even milk!

Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 325 degrees F (165 degrees C). Position racks in top and bottom third of the oven. Line two large rimmed baking sheets with parchment paper and lightly spray with cooking spray.
- Whisk flour, cocoa powder, baking powder, and salt together in a medium bowl.
- Beat eggs in the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with a whisk attachment on medium-high speed until pale and frothy, about 2 minutes. Gradually add sugar and mix until pale and thickened, about 2 minutes. Beat in melted butter and vanilla on low speed until combined.
- Add chocolate-hazelnut spread and beat on low speed, scraping down sides and bottom of bowl as needed, until just combined, about 30 seconds. Gradually mix in flour mixture and on low speed until just combined, about 30 seconds. Fold in chocolate chips and hazelnuts until just combined.
- Divide dough in half. Place each half in the center of a prepared baking sheet. Lightly spray your hands with cooking spray and shape each piece of dough into a 3/4-x2 1/2-x13-inch log.
- Bake in the preheated oven, rotating cookie sheets halfway through, until set and firm to the touch, about 30 minutes. Remove from the oven and let cool on the baking sheets for 10 minutes. Reduce oven temperature to 300 degrees F (150 degrees C).
- Carefully transfer one log to a cutting board. Use a serrated knife to cut 1/2-inch slices on the diagonal. Transfer slices back to the baking sheet in an even layer, with cut-sides up. Repeat with the remaining log.
- Bake in the preheated oven until dried, about 30 minutes, flipping cookies and rotating baking sheets halfway through. Transfer biscotti to a wire rack and let cool completely, about 30 minutes.
- Meanwhile, microwave candy wafers in a medium microwave-safe bowl on high power for 30 seconds, then stir. Continue microwaving and stirring in 30-second increments, until melted and smooth, about 1 to 1 1/2 minutes total. Drizzle melted chocolate over one end of each biscotti.
- Refrigerate, uncovered, until chocolate hardens, about 15 minutes.

LIMONCELLO PINE NUT BISCOTTI
This is a fabulous biscotti recipe using Limoncello (store-bought or Recipe #167289). The pine nuts are a perfect balance with the Limoncello. It pairs nicely with cold Limoncello and is also wonderful with a cup of coffee. Whole wheat flour gives the biscotti a heartier flavor. Great for a gift basket!

Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees and butter a cookie sheet.
- Combine flour, sugar, salt and baking powder in food processor and pulse briefly to blend.
- Add chopped butter and pulse until the butter is broken down into very tiny bits.
- In a small mixing bowl, whisk together egg, vanilla, zest and limoncello. Stir in pine nuts and add to food processor and pulse, just to blend. The mixture should be moist but crumbly.
- Turn out onto a flat surface and press together. Press the dough away from you using the palm of you hand once or twice so everything is well moistened.
- Form dough into a ball. Cut in half and roll each section into a long 1" thick rope. If the dough seems too sticky, dust your hands with flour while rolling it.
- Place the two ropes on the baking sheet a few inches apart and flatten the tops slightly.
- Sprinkle lightly with sugar and bake until lightly golden, about 30 minutes.
- Remove from the oven and let stand for 5 minutes. If the logs are too hot when you try to slice them, they can break.
- Cutting the biscotti:.
- When the two ropes are cool enough to remove from the sheet pan without breaking, place them on a flat surface and cut into approximately ½-inch slices, cutting on an angle using a quick, clean stroke with a sharp chef's knife. A sawing motion may cause the biscotti to break. Don't worry if they feel a bit crumbly. If you handle them gently, they will be fine.
- Place the cut biscotti, cut side up, back on the sheet pan, and bake for about 10 minutes longer, or until they are lightly browned.
- Cool on wire rack and store in a covered container. They will keep about one week.

HOMEMADE LIMONCELLO
If you have yet to try limoncello, you are in for a sweet treat! It's an Italian lemon liquor that my nonna would always serve in chilled glasses after a big family feast. My father grew up in Sicily, where lemon trees are abundant, but limoncello can be found all over southern Italy. It's lovely when sipped straight out of the freezer, poured over vanilla ice cream or spun into cocktails, like my Italian 75 or Spicy Italian Margarita. Cheers!

Steps:
- Zest just the yellow portion of the lemon peels with a rasp grater, avoiding any of the bitter white pith. You should have about 1/4 cup zest. Transfer the zest to a jar or other airtight container. Add the vodka, seal and shake to combine. Set aside in a cool, dark place for at least 2 weeks.
- Strain the infused vodka through a fine-mesh sieve into a medium bowl. You may need to line the sieve with a coffee filter to catch all of the zest. Discard the zest (or dehydrate it and add to the salt for rimming my Spicy Italian Margarita).
- If making your own simple syrup, combine the sugar with 3/4 cup water in a small saucepan. Bring to a simmer over medium-high heat and cook, whisking occasionally, until the sugar is fully dissolved, about 3 minutes. Set aside to cool completely.
- Combine 3/4 cup of the simple syrup (or more, if desired) with the infused vodka. Store in an airtight bottle in the freezer for up to 6 months.
