Time 1h45m

Yield 30 to 35 cookies

Number Of Ingredients 13

2 3/4 cups all-purpose flour
1/2 cup ground coffee
1 tablespoon unsweetened cocoa powder
1 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1 cup sugar
2 tablespoons unsalted butter, at room temperature
1/4 cup honey
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
3 large eggs
3/4 cup macadamia nuts, roughly chopped
1 12-ounce bag white chocolate chips
2 1/2 cups sweetened shredded coconut, toasted

Steps:

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Whisk the flour, coffee, cocoa powder, baking soda and cinnamon in a medium bowl. Combine the sugar, butter, honey, vanilla and eggs in a large bowl with a mixer on medium-high speed. Reduce the mixer speed to low; beat in the flour mixture until just combined. Stir in the macadamia nuts with a wooden spoon.
Form the dough into two 3-by-8-inch logs on the prepared baking sheet, about 3 inches apart. Bake until browned, about 25 minutes. Let cool 10 minutes, then transfer to a cutting board. Cut into 1/2-inch-thick slices using a serrated knife.
Reduce the oven temperature to 325 degrees F. Arrange the slices cut-side down on the baking sheet; return to the oven and bake 20 more minutes, flipping the cookies halfway through. Let cool 10 minutes on the baking sheets, then transfer to racks to cool completely.
Melt the white chocolate chips in a heatproof bowl set over a saucepan of simmering water (do not let the bowl touch the water), stirring until smooth. Dip the biscotti partway into the melted chocolate, then roll in the coconut. Place on a baking sheet lined with fresh parchment; refrigerate until set, about 30 minutes.

Time 3h

Yield Makes 36 biscotti

Number Of Ingredients 9

1 3/4 cups all-purpose flour (see Cook's Note)
2/3 cup sugar plus extra for sprinkling
2 tablespoons instant espresso powder
1/2 teaspoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
4 tablespoons unsalted butter, at room temperature
2 large eggs plus 1 large egg white, lightly beaten
1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
1 1/2 cups salted macadamia nuts, roughly chopped

Steps:

Preheat the oven 350 F and line a baking sheet with parchment and set aside.
Pulse the flour, sugar, espresso powder, baking powder and salt in a food processor until combined. Add the butter and pulse until the mixture looks like sand.
Whisk the eggs, 1 tablespoon water and vanilla together in a large bowl until well mixed then add the flour mixture and stir until a crumbly dough forms. Press together and knead to a moist, uniform dough. Knead in the macadamia nuts.
Divide the dough in half and shape each into an 11-by-2-inch log on the prepared baking sheet, keeping 3-inches between the logs. Brush each log with egg white and sprinkle all over with sugar. Bake for 30 minutes.
Cool the logs for 5 minutes on the baking sheets and then transfer to a cutting board. Cut 1/2-inch thick slices using a sharp serrated knife. Return to the baking sheet and bake again, turning halfway though, until firm and browned, 25 minutes more. Transfer to a wire rack to cool. Store at room temperature in an airtight container for up to 2 weeks.
