COCONUT BISCOTTI
Steps:
- Position racks in the upper and lower thirds of the oven; preheat to 350 degrees F. Spread 1 cup coconut flakes on a baking sheet and bake until toasted, about 3 minutes. Let cool completely. Transfer to a food processor; add the granulated sugar and pulse until finely ground. Line 2 baking sheets with parchment paper.
- Whisk the coconut-sugar mixture, the flour, baking powder, baking soda and salt in a bowl. Melt the coconut oil in the microwave; add to the flour mixture along with the vanilla and 1/3 cup water and mix with a wooden spoon until a stiff dough forms. Stir in the macadamia nuts and the remaining 1/2 cup coconut flakes; gently knead until the dough comes together.
- Divide the dough in half and shape into two 9-by-2-inch logs; place 1 log on each baking sheet. Bake, switching the pans halfway through, until the logs are firm and golden, about 25 minutes. Reduce the oven temperature to 300 degrees F.
- Let the logs cool 10 minutes, then transfer to a cutting board; slice diagonally with a serrated knife into 3/4-inch-thick pieces. Arrange the slices cut-side down on the baking sheets. Bake, flipping halfway through, until just golden and the centers still have a little give, 20 to 25 minutes. Let cool completely on the baking sheets. (The biscotti will crisp as they cool.)
- Whisk the confectioners' sugar, coconut cream and coconut extract until smooth. Dip the biscotti in the glaze; sprinkle with coarse sugar.
COCONUT WALNUT BISCOTTI
A delicious biscotti. I made this one year and took a bag to my granddaughter's basketball game. My daughter and granddaughter ate it all on the way home. They both just loved it. The kids all ask for it when they come home for Christmas. They also like us to bring some when we visit. It travels well.

Biscotti, how I love them. These are a great choice for the holiday cookie trays or whenever you have the desire. They can include almonds if you like.

Steps:
- In a medium bowl, whisk the flour, baking powder, and salt.
- In a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, beat the butter and sugar on medium speed until light and fluffy, 2 to 3 minutes.
- Add the eggs one at a time, mixing on medium speed after each addition until incorporated.
- Mix in the vanilla and then the coconut until well combined.
- With the mixer on low speed, gradually add the flour mixture and mix just until combined.
- The dough will be sticky.
- With the mixer still on low, mix in the chocolate chips (and almonds, if using) .
- Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and refrigerate for 30 minutes.
- Position a rack in the center of the oven and heat the oven to 350°F.
- Line a large cookie sheet with parchment.
- Divide the dough into equal halves and place on the cookie sheet.
- Working on the sheet, shape each half into a loaf about 10 inches long, 3 inches wide, and 3/4 inch high.
- Bake until the tops are browned, cracked, and crusty, and spring back slightly when gently pressed, 30 to 35 minutes.
- Cool about 30 minutes on the cookie sheet.
- Reduce the oven temperature to 325°F.
- Transfer each loaf to a cutting board and with a sharp serrated bread knife, cut 1/2-inch slices crosswise on the diagonal.
- When slicing, hold the sides of the loaf near each cut to keep the slices neat.
- Put the slices cut side down on the cookie sheet and bake until the biscotti are dried and the cut surfaces are lightly browned, 15 to 20 minutes. Transfer the cookie sheet to a rack and let the biscotti cool completely. The biscotti may give slightly when pressed but will harden as they cool.
