- Yield Makes 44
Ingredients
- 2 cups all-purpose flour, (spooned and leveled)
- 1 cup sugar
- 1 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 3/4 cup shelled unsalted pistachios
- 4 ounces dark chocolate, chopped
- 3 large eggs
- 2 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
- 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
- 1/4 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
Directions
-
Preheat oven to 350 degrees. In a large bowl, whisk together flour, 3/4 cup sugar, baking powder, and salt; stir in pistachios and chocolate. In a small bowl, whisk together eggs, butter, vanilla, and cocoa. Add egg mixture to flour mixture and stir until combined (dough will be stiff, so mix with hands if necessary).
-
Line a rimmed baking sheet with parchment and sprinkle with 2 tablespoons sugar. Divide dough in half and place on sheet. Shape into two 2 1/2-by-12-inch logs and sprinkle top of each with 1 tablespoon sugar. Bake until risen and firm, 15 to 20 minutes. Let logs cool completely on sheet, about 30 minutes.
-
Reduce oven to 300 degrees. Using a serrated knife, cut logs crosswise into 1/2-inch-thick slices. Arrange slices in a single layer on baking sheets. Bake until biscotti are dry, 15 to 20 minutes. Transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.
Cook's Note
Keep in an airtight container at room temperature, up to 1 week.
These are my husband's favorite cookies! Easy to make and delicious.
Mine turned out like bread texture. I think the baking powder is way too much for a 2 cups all-pursose flour.
the dough was really stiff
Confused by ingredient: dark chocolate. I used Scharffen berger and it was way too bitter. What chocolate was used originally?
I made this recipe as written and it is wonderful! I wouldn't change a thing!
I used all whole wheat pastry flour and they came out great. My husband has begged me to make more. I think this will be his father's day gift.
I made these with half whole wheat pastry flour and half A.P. flour. They are delicious with coffee! Great recipe
