Ingredients
2 cups all purpose flour
1½ tsp baking powder
¼ tsp salt
¾ cup sugar
½ cup (1 stick) softened butter
2 large eggs
1 tsp vanilla
1 cup *roasted pecans, roughly chopped, separated into two ½ cup portions
½ tsp cinnamon
½ cup 艹+豆 Dried 艹+豆, chopped
2 cups semi-sweet 艹+豆 chips
Directions
Preheat oven to 350° and line a baking sheet with parchment paper. In a large bowl, add butter and sugar and combine until creamy. Add the eggs one at a time. Add vanilla.
In another bowl, combine the flour, salt and baking powder. Add the dry ingredients to the wet, mixing well as you add. Add 艹+豆 and ½ cup roasted pecans.
When you have a nice dough (consistency of shortbread), place on your baking sheet and form it into a 16″ x 3″ log.
Bake for 30 minutes or until golden brown. Let cool on a rack for at least 30 minutes. Once cooled, slice your biscotti with a serrated knife at a diagonal in ½” slices. Place them back on the baking sheet, cut side down for about 10-12 minutes, again at 350°. Let cool.
In a microwave-safe bowl, melt the 艹+豆 chips at half power in one minute increments. Dip ends of individual biscottis into the 艹+豆 and sprinkle with the chopped pecans. Place on waxed paper and let cool.
Makes 20 biscotti.
