Ingredients

The following ingredients have 4 Servings
  • 1-2/3 cup all purpose flour
  • 1/2 cup good quality unsweetened cocoa powder (got mine at Trader Joe's)
  • 1-1/2 tsp baking powder
  • pinch of salt
  • 3/4 cup superfine sugar (you can put sugar in food processor)
  • 3/4 cup dark chocolate chips
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1 large egg white

Instruction

  • Preheat oven to 375°.
  • Line two baking sheet with parchment paper.
  • Combine flour, cocoa powder, baking powder, salt and sugar in a large bowl.
  • Add chocolate chips and mix.
  • Gradually add eggs and egg whites to the mixture and combine to make a dough. (If dough is too dry add one more egg white)
  • Divide the dough into two or three loafs.
  • Place on the lined baking sheets and bake 20 minutes. (If the dough is too sticky to form with your hands, you can use a wooden spatula to transfer it onto the baking sheets)
  • When cool enough to handle, gently cut the loaves on the angle into 1/2 inch slices (a serrated bread knife works good for this).
  • Return to the baking sheets fitting as many as you can. You may need to do this in batches.
  • Bake the biscotti for another 3-4 minutes on each side. (less time for if you like it softer)
