Time 1h

Yield 36 Biscotti

Number Of Ingredients 11

1 cup flour
1/4 cup unsweetened dutch cocoa
3/4 teaspoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 cup unsalted butter, softened
1 1/2 cups sugar, plus
2 tablespoons sugar (I use Splenda sugar blend for Baking, use half the amount of sugar)
1 large egg
1 tablespoon freshly grated orange zest
1 tablespoon fresh orange juice
1/2 cup chopped walnuts, toasted

Steps:

  • Toast walnuts in oven or microwave; set aside.
  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees and butter a large cookie sheet.
  • In a bowl whisk together flour, cocoa powder, baking powder, and salt.
  • In another bowl with an electric mixer beat together butter and sugar until light and fluffy; add egg, zest and orange juice and beat until well combined; stir in flour mixture until a soft dough is formed, stir in walnuts.
  • On a baking sheet with floured hands form dough into 2 (9-inch) long logs and bake in middle of oven until slightly firm to the touch, about 13 minutes. Cool biscotti on baking sheet on a rack for 15 minutes.
  • On a cutting board with serrated knife cut logs diagonally into 1/2-inch- thick slices; arrange biscotti, cut side down, on baking sheet and bake until crisp, about 15 minutes.
  • Cool biscotti on rack: biscotti may be made 1 week ahead and kept in airtight containers, or 1 month and frozen.
