Ingredients

• 2 cups All-purpose flour
• 0.75 cup Granulated sugar
• 0.25 cup Unsweetened cocoa powder
• 1 teaspoon Baking powder
• 0.25 teaspoon Salt
• 3 Large eggs
• 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
• 1 cup Chopped walnuts
• 0.5 cup Semi-sweet chocolate chips

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

Step 2

In a large bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, granulated sugar, cocoa powder, baking powder, and salt until well combined.

Step 3

In a separate medium-sized bowl, beat the eggs and mix in the vanilla extract.

Step 4

Gradually add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients and stir until a dough begins to form.

Step 5

Fold in the chopped walnuts and semi-sweet chocolate chips, ensuring they are evenly distributed throughout the dough.

Step 6

Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured surface and divide it into two equal portions.

Step 7

Shape each portion into a flat log approximately 12 inches long and 2 inches wide. Transfer the logs to the prepared baking sheet, spaced at least 2 inches apart.

Step 8

Bake in the preheated oven for 25 minutes or until the logs are firm to the touch. Remove from the oven and let them cool for 10 minutes.

Step 9

Reduce the oven temperature to 300°F (150°C).

Step 10

Using a serrated knife, carefully slice each log diagonally into 3/4-inch-thick biscotti pieces.

Step 11

Arrange the slices cut side down on the baking sheet and return them to the oven.

Step 12

Bake for an additional 20-25 minutes, flipping the biscotti halfway through, until they are dry and crisp.

Step 13

Remove from the oven and allow the biscotti to cool completely on a wire rack before serving or storing in an airtight container.
