Ingredients

  • 2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 tsp. baking powder
  • 1/4 tsp. salt
  • 1/4 tsp. nutmeg
  • 1 cup granulated sugar
  • 4 Tbsp. butter, softened
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1/2 tsp. vanilla
  • 1/4 lb. chocolate

Instructions

  1. Get your oven ready by preheating it to 350 degrees Fahrenheit.
  2. In a big bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder, salt, and nutmeg.
  3. In a different bowl, beat sugar, butter, eggs, and vanilla extract using a mixer until almost smooth, don't worry about a few butter bits.
  4. Take the dry ingredients from bowl one and add them to the wet ingredients in bowl two. Mix it all together until it forms a dough ball.
  5. Now for shaping! Divide the dough in half and roll each half into a flat log, about 8 inches long and 2-3 inches wide. Put the logs on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
  6. Bake the biscotti logs for 25 minutes, or until they're slightly golden on the edges and have some cracks on top.
  7. Take out the hot biscotti and carefully move them to a cutting board. Use a serrated bread knife to cut the biscotti diagonally into slices about ½ inch thick.
  8. Time for the second bake! Arrange the biscotti slices flat on the baking sheet and bake for another 5 minutes. Then, take out the sheet, flip the biscotti, and bake for another 5 minutes, or until they're golden brown.
  9. Once they're golden brown, take out the biscotti and let them cool completely before decorating with melted chocolate.
