I found this recipe on CookiesfromItaly.com. I liked it so much, I will be making these for Christmas! If only I could eat cookies all the time, I'd be in the kitchen right now making a batch!

Time 1h

Yield 30 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 10

2 cups all-purpose flour
1/2 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
1 teaspoon baking soda
1 teaspoon salt
6 tablespoons unsalted butter, softened
1 cup granulated sugar
2 large eggs
1 cup walnuts, chopped
3/4 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips
1 tablespoon confectioners' sugar

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees
  • Butter and flour a large baking sheet.
  • In a bowl, whisk together flour, cocoa powder, baking soda and salt.
  • In another bowl with an electric mixer beat together the butter and granulated sugar until light and fluffy. Add eggs and beat until mixed well. Stir in flour mixture to form a stiff dough. Stir in walnuts and chocolate chips.
  • On the prepared baking sheet with floured hands, form dough into two slightly flattened logs, each 12 inches long and 2 inches wide, and sprinkle with confectioners' sugar. Bake logs for 35 minutes, or until slightly firm to the touch. Cool biscotti on the baking sheet for 5 minutes.
  • On a cutting board, cut biscotti diagonally into 3/4 inch slices.
  • Arrange biscotti, cut sides down, on baking sheet and bake until crisp, about 10 minutes.
  • Cool biscotti on a rack. Keep the biscotti in air-tight containers for 1 week and, frozen, 1 month. Yields 30 biscotti.
