Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 350˚ F . Whisk the flour, baking powder and kosher salt in a medium bowl; set aside. In a large bowl, whisk the coconut oil and sugar. Whisk in the eggs, one at a time, and then the vanilla. Stir the dry ingredients into the wet ingredients and then fold in the sprinkles.
- Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Divide the dough in half, then form each half into a long rectangle, about 4 inches wide, on the baking sheet. Leave a good few inches in between the rectangles because they will spread in the oven. Sprinkle the tops with more sprinkles and a few pinches of sea salt and bake for 25 minutes.
- Remove from the oven and reduce the oven temperature to 250˚ F. Transfer the rectangles to a cutting board and use a serrated knife to cut them into 1-inch-thick pieces. Place them on their sides on the baking sheet. Return to the oven and bake for 20 more minutes, or until desired crispiness. Transfer to a rack and let cool on the baking sheet.

Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
- Whisk together the flour, baking powder and salt in a medium bowl and set aside. Whisk together the coconut oil and sugar in a separate large bowl. Whisk the eggs into the coconut oil mixture one at a time, and then the vanilla. Whisk the dry ingredients into the wet ingredients, and then fold in the sprinkles.
- Line a baking sheet with parchment, divide the dough into 2 parts and form each part into a long rectangle, about 4 inches wide. Leave a few good inches in between the rectangles because they will spread in the oven. Sprinkle the tops with a few pinches of sea salt and bake until firm and just beginning to brown around the edges, about 25 minutes.
- Remove from the oven and reduce the heat to 250 degrees F. Use a serrated knife to cut the rectangles into 1-inch pieces and place them on the lined baking sheet cut-side down. Bake until crisp, about 20 more minutes. Transfer to a wire rack to cool completely, about 1 hour.

Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 350°F degrees and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, cocoa powder, baking soda and salt.
- In the bowl of an electric mixer, cream the butter and sugar until light and fluffy, 1-2 minutes. Scrape down the sides of the bowl with a rubber spatula. Add the eggs, one at a time, scraping down the bowl and mixing well after each addition. Beat in the vanilla. Add the dry ingredients and chocolate chips and stir on low speed until just combined.
- Dust a work surface with flour. Using a rubber spatula, scrape the sticky dough out onto the work surface and dust the top of the dough lightly with flour. Using your hands, shape the dough into a rough ball (if it's still too sticky, dust with a bit more flour) and cut in half. Form the dough pieces into two short logs by rolling back and forth. Place the logs onto the prepared baking sheet and shape into longer logs about ¾-inch high and 2 inches wide. Allow enough space for the logs to spread a few inches while they bake. Bake for about 35 minutes, until firm to the touch. Let the biscotti logs cool on the pan for about 5 minutes, or until just cool enough to touch (if you wait any longer, the biscotti will be difficult to cut); then, using a sharp knife, slice the logs on the diagonal into ¾-inch slices (I do this right on the baking sheet). They will crumble just a bit; don't worry about it. Turn the biscotti on their sides (so that the cut sides are down) and place back in the oven for 10 minutes to dry and crisp up. Let cool on the pan for a few minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely. Serve with coffee, tea or warm milk.
- Freezer-Friendly Instructions: The dough can be frozen for up to 3 months: Shape the dough into logs, wrap each securely in plastic wrap, and place them in a sealable bag. When ready to bake, remove the logs from the freezer, thaw the dough until pliable, and then proceed with recipe. To freeze after baking: After the cookies are completely cooled, double-wrap them securely with aluminum foil or plastic freezer wrap. Thaw overnight on the countertop before serving.

BISCOTTI
These classic Italian cookies get their signature crispness from being twice-baked: First, the dough is cooked in logs, cut into slices, then baked again. Because they travel and keep well, a pile of them makes an excellent gift wrapped in a cellophane bag and tied with a ribbon. Feel free to experiment with add-ins: Sub in hazelnuts or pistachios for the almonds. Add mini chocolate chips or dried cranberries, or a teaspoon of citrus zest. Or take the cookies over the top by drizzling with melted chocolate, glazing with icing or dusting with sprinkles. You do you.

GLUTEN-FREE CHOCOLATE BUCKWHEAT BISCOTTI
These biscotti have a crumbly texture when they emerge from the first baking, so allow the logs to cool and cut them carefully, about 1/2 inch thick (if you cut them too thin they can fall apart). Buckwheat flour is a great backdrop for the chocolate; it doesn't dominate but seems rather to show off the chocolate.

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Line a 12- by 17-inch baking sheet with parchment paper or nonstick liner. Sift together the flour, cocoa, salt and baking soda; set aside.
- Using a heavy-duty electric mixer, cream together the brown sugar, granulated sugar and butter for 3 to 5 minutes at medium speed. Add vanilla extract and espresso. Mix for 10 seconds. Add eggs one at a time, mixing for 10 seconds at medium-low speed after each addition. Add sifted flour mixture and mix at low speed until dough comes together, 1 to 2 minutes. Add chocolate chips and mix just until chips are evenly incorporated, 15 to 20 seconds.
- Transfer dough to a work surface and divide in two, shaping into balls. Form each ball into a log 1 1/2 to 2 inches wide. Transfer logs to prepared baking sheet and flatten slightly. Brush tops of logs with egg wash and sprinkle each log with 1 tablespoon raw sugar. Bake until biscotti have spread, have a few cracks and bounce back slightly when pressed with fingertips, 30 to 40 minutes. Remove from oven and let cool completely, about 1 1/2 hours.
- Preheat oven to 325 degrees. Using a sharp serrated knife, cut logs into 1/4-inch to 1/2-inch slices. Place each slice with a cut side down on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper or nonstick liner. Bake until firm, crisp and slightly dry, about 15 minutes. Store in an airtight container at room temperature for up to three days, or freeze for up to three months.
