Chocolate Coffee Biscotti Recipe
Over the past 2 years we’ve featured many of the Nielsen-Massey vanillas and flavored extracts here on the TwoClassyChics blog. I know that Shelly and I both use them regularly and they are staples in our pantry.
If you love biscotti you can now make it at home by following this great recipe from Nielsen-Massey. The recipe makes 2 1/2 dozen.
Chocolate Coffee Biscotti Recipe
2 cups unbleached all-purpose flour
1 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 cup (1 stick) butter, softened
1 cup sugar
2 eggs
1 tablespoon Nielsen-Massey
Madagascar Bourbon Pure Vanilla Bean Paste
1 teaspoon Nielsen-Massey Pure Coffee Extract
1 cup mini semi-sweet chocolate morsels
1 tablespoon Nielsen-Massey Madagascar Bourbon Pure Vanilla Sugar (divided)
Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Line a large light-colored heavy rimmed baking sheet with parchment paper; set aside.
In a medium bowl, add flour, baking powder and salt; whisk to combine and set aside.
In a large bowl, add butter and sugar; beat with an electric mixer on medium speed until combined. Add eggs, vanilla and coffee extracts, and beat until creamy, about 2 minutes. Reduce speed to low; add flour mixture and beat until combined. Add chocolate and beat until combined.
Dough will be slightly sticky. Divide dough in half. Using a lightly floured surface, roll dough into 2 (12 inches) logs. Transfer logs to prepared sheet pan and press and form each log so the width of each is about 2 1/2 inches across and the height is about 3/4 inch. Sprinkle each log with 1/2 tablespoon of vanilla sugar and gently press into dough.
Bake until done, about 25-30 minutes; remove from oven and carefully transfer parchment paper with biscotti to a wire rack and slightly cool. Reduce oven to 325 degrees F.
Using a serrated knife, cut logs crosswise, on the diagonal, into 1/2 inch slices. Place on parchment lined sheet pan, cut side down. Bake until crisp, about 16-20 minutes, turning biscotti over halfway through baking time. Cool on wire rack and store biscotti in an airtight container.
Note: You can use Pure Vanilla Bean Paste in place of Madagascar Bourbon Pure Vanilla Bean Paste to achieve a different, but still delicious, flavor profile. Simply use the same amount of the Pure Vanilla Bean Paste.
