Chocolate Walnut Lemon Biscotti
This biscotti recipe is perfect for dipping. Make a frothy cappuccino, sit on your patio and take a moment of me time. The recipe is from my sister, who is an incredible baker. It's easy and relatively quick. Here's what you'll need:
Mixing Bowl #1:
1 3/4 cup Flour
2 tsp Baking powder
3/4 cup Whole walnuts (or almonds)
1/2 cup Semi-sweet chocolate chips
Mixing Bowl #2:
2 Eggs
3/4 cup Sugar
1/3 cup Butter
2 tsp Vanilla
1/2 tsp Almond extract
1 1/2 tsp Lemon rind (or orange)
1 Egg white
Directions:
* After mixing each bowl individually, combine them together. Leave the egg white separate.
* Form the dough into 2 balls.
* Sprinkle flour on the counter and roll each ball into a log.
* Brush each log with egg white
* Bake @ 350 F for 20 minutes
* Cool for 5 minutes, cut diagonally, turn the pieces on their side and bake for 20 minutes. They should be golden.
* Try not to eat them all in one sitting...
