Ingredients
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 0.75 cup granulated sugar
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 0.25 teaspoon salt
- 0.25 cup unsalted butter (softened)
- 3 large eggs
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 0.5 cup almonds (optional, chopped or slivered)
- 0.25 cup chocolate chips (optional)
Directions
Step 1
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a large baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat.
Step 2
In a medium-sized bowl, whisk together the flour, granulated sugar, baking powder, and salt until well-combined.
Step 3
In a separate larger bowl, beat the softened butter until creamy. Add the eggs one at a time, mixing well after each addition.
Step 4
Stir in the vanilla extract followed by the dry ingredients. Mix until a soft dough forms.
Step 5
If using almonds or chocolate chips, gently fold them into the dough for added texture and flavor.
Step 6
Divide the dough in half and shape each portion into a log about 10 inches long and 2 inches wide on the prepared baking sheet. Leave some space between the logs as they will spread slightly.
Step 7
Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes or until the logs are lightly golden and firm to the touch. Avoid overbaking to ensure a tender texture.
Step 8
Remove the baking sheet from the oven and let the logs cool completely on the tray before slicing. Serve immediately or store in an airtight container for up to one week.
Step 9
Enjoy your once-baked biscotti with a hot cup of coffee or tea!
