nutella biscotti

It's a good day to experiment on biscottis. I've not tried this recipe before on my own so was really pleased that it turned out well-ish.

Nutella biscotti

2 1/4 cups all purpose flour
2 tbsp cocoa powder
1/2 tsp baking powder
1/2 tsp bicarbonate of soda
1/2 tsp salt
3 large eggs
1/2 cup nutella (or more!!)
1/2 cup chocolate chips (I think if it's white chocolate chips would be aesthetically nicer)


1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit
2. Sift flour, cocoa, baking powder, bicarbonate of soda and salt in a medium bowl
3. Beat eggs until frothy. Add sugar and beat for 2 minutes
4. Beat in nutella until well combined. Add flour mixture to egg mixture and mix until combined. Did I say you need to mix them? Yes, mix mix mix.
5. Stir in chocolate chip
6. Divide dough into 2/3 logs with well floured hands. This is really tricky because mine turned out real sticky so it's either you're left with absolutely messy hand or just stick to spatula and spoons. Basically just arrange them on a parchment lined baking sheet. Press logs into rectangles of roughly 1/2 inch thick. Don't worry if it looks flat because it'll rise later on.
7. Bake for 20 mins. Remove from oven
8. Change the oven setting to 300 degrees Fahrenheit.
9. Cut logs into 1/3-1/2 inch slices. Or to your liking. Arrange on baking sheets and pop them in the oven again.
10. Bake for another 10-12 minutes, turn biscotti over and bake for another 10-12. This is up to your own discretion because it depends on how thick your biscotti is and how well done you want them. The idea of biscotti is for it to be quite hard so when you dunk it in your coffee, it's lush!

Selamat mencuba!
