Ingredients

• 240 grams All-purpose flour
• 150 grams Granulated sugar
• 1 teaspoon Baking powder
• 0.25 teaspoons Salt
• 100 grams Unsweetened shredded coconut
• 2 Large eggs
• 1.5 teaspoons Vanilla extract
• 0.5 teaspoons Coconut extract (optional)
• 60 grams Unsalted butter (melted and cooled)
• 100 grams Optional: White chocolate (for drizzling or dipping)

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 180°C (350°F) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

Step 2

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

Step 3

Stir in the unsweetened shredded coconut, ensuring it is evenly distributed throughout the dry mixture.

Step 4

In a separate bowl, beat together the eggs, vanilla extract, coconut extract (if using), and melted butter until smooth.

Step 5

Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and mix until a dough forms. The dough should be slightly sticky but manageable.

Step 6

Divide the dough in half and shape each portion into a log approximately 30 cm (12 inches) long and 5 cm (2 inches) wide. Place the logs on the prepared baking sheet, leaving space between them to allow for spreading.

Step 7

Bake the logs in the preheated oven for 25 minutes, or until they are lightly golden and firm to the touch.

Step 8

Remove the baking sheet from the oven and let the logs cool for 10 minutes. Reduce the oven temperature to 150°C (300°F).

Step 9

Using a serrated knife, carefully slice the logs diagonally into 1.5 cm (0.6-inch) thick pieces.

Step 10

Place the biscotti slices cut-side down on the baking sheet. Return the sheet to the oven and bake for an additional 15 minutes, then flip the biscotti and bake for another 10 minutes until crisp and golden on both sides.

Step 11

Transfer the baked biscotti to a wire rack to cool completely before serving.

Step 12

Optional: Melt the white chocolate according to package instructions and drizzle or dip the cooled biscotti for a decorative touch.
