Chocolate Chocolate Chip Biscotti

Ingredients

• 1 cup white sugar or brown sugar
• 1/4 cup butter, softened
• 2 eggs
• 1 tablespoon vanilla extract
• 2 cups all-purpose flour
• 2 tablespoons cocoa powder, heaping
• 1 teaspoon baking powder
• 1 pinch salt
• 1 cup chocolate chips

Directions

1. 1

   Preheat your oven to 350 degrees.

2. 2

   Cream the sugar and butter together in a stand-up mixer until light and fluffy. Add the eggs, one at a time and continue to beat for a few more minutes. Add the vanilla.

3. 3

   Whisk together the flour, cocoa, baking powder and salt and add to the mixer. Combine well then stir in the chocolate chips.

4. 4

   Shape the dough with lightly floured hands into a log, approximately 12 inches long and 3 inches wide. You may find it easier to divide the dough in half and form two shorter logs. Place on a parchment-lined baking sheet flatten slightly and bake for 30 minutes.

5. 5

   Remove from oven and cool until you can handle it. Slice diagonally, into 1/2-inch slices and return to the baking sheet. Bake again until the cookies lightly brown, about ten minutes. Flip them over and brown another few minutes. Cool and enjoy with a cup of espresso!
