Chocolate Biscotii we go nuts for
June 28, 2016INGREDIENTS
Enough for approximately 50 biscotti
- 200g flour
- 150g sugar
- 60g cacao (or less depending on how intense you want the flavour to be)
- 60g chocolate pieces/chips
- 1 tbs baking powder
- 1 tbs vanilla extract
- 1/2 salt
- 3 beaten eggs
- 100g cashews/ almonds or hazelnuts (or more)
Heat your oven at 180 degrees. Mix the flour, sugar, cacao, baking powder, salt and chocolate in a bowl. Add the beaten eggs and vanilla extract. Mix well. When is all mixed well you should arrive with a composition that is very sticky. Don’t worry you are on the right track! Add the nuts, and shape the dough into 3 salami inspired figures. Use flour on the board and on your hands while doing this. Place them on a parchment lined tray and put them in the oven for 25 minutes.
Once baked bring them out, let them cool off and then cut them into 1/2 inch thick slices.
Place them back in the oven for another 15 minutes.
Take them out and let them cool off. Enjoy!
