Servings 30 biscotti

Ingredients
  

  • 3 ounces Unsalted Butter softened
  • 3 ounces Powdered Sugar
  • 0.5 tsp Salt
  • 0.5 Tbsp Vanilla Extract
  • 0.5 tsp Almond Extract
  • 2 tsp Baking Powder
  • 2 Large Eggs
  • 10 ounces Almond Flour
  • 3 ounces Semi-Sweet Chocolate Chips for garnish
  • 2 ounces Sliced Almonds for garnish

Instructions
 

  • Preheat your oven to 350° F and line a large baking sheet with parchment paper.
  • In the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with a paddle attachment, cream together the butter, powdered sugar, salt, vanilla extract, and almond extract until smooth.
  • Beat in the eggs at low speed, scraping down the sides of the bowl in between.
  • With the mixer running, add half of the almond flour. Scrape down the sides of the bowl then add the remaining almond flour, as well as the baking powder.
  • Mix until smooth.
  • Pour the dough into two log shapes on the parchment lined pan, OR use a pastry bag to pipe the log shapes. You will want them to be about 2 inches wide. Smooth out the tops and sides of the logs with a wet spatula or spoon, and bake for about 25 minutes.
  • Remove the pan from the oven and let cool for about 5-10 minutes. Reduce the oven temperature to 325° F.
  • Using a serrated knife, cut the logs into 1/2 inch pieces.
  • Place the biscottis evenly on the baking sheet and place back in the oven for another 25 minutes. They should feel dry and look golden brown when they’re done.
  • Remove from the oven and transfer to a cooling rack.
  • While the biscottis are cooling down, melt your semi-sweet chocolate chips in a microwave safe bowl.
  • Once cooled, drizzle them with melted chocolate and sprinkle with sliced almonds to garnish.
