Provided by Food Network Kitchen

Categories     dessert

Time 2h20m

Yield 22 to 24 cookies

Number Of Ingredients 9

2 cups all-purpose flour
2/3 cup granulated sugar
1/4 cup turbinado sugar, plus extra for sprinkling
1 1/2 tablespoons espresso powder
1 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon anise seed, lightly crushed
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 cup mini dark chocolate chunks (4 1/2 ounces)
3 large eggs, lightly beaten

Steps:

  • Position a rack in the top third of the oven and preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
  • Mix together the flour, sugars, espresso powder, baking soda, anise seed, salt and chocolate chunks in a large bowl. Add the beaten eggs and stir with a wooden spoon until the dough starts to come together (it will be fairly dry before you knead it). Transfer the dough to a lightly floured surface. Knead the dough, squeezing it and pressing it against the surface, until you can form it into a ball, 15 to 20 times. Shape the dough into a flat log about 16 inches long and 2 inches wide. Cut the log in half crosswise. Brush the tops with a little bit of water and sprinkle the top and sides with some turbinado sugar.
  • Place the logs side by side on a parchment-lined baking sheet and bake until golden, 30 to 35 minutes. Remove from the oven and cool for 10 minutes. Reduce the oven temperature to 325 degrees F.
  • Transfer the logs to a cutting board and cut diagonally with a serrated knife into 1/2-inch slices. Place the cookies cut-side up on a baking sheet and bake until golden, about 10 minutes. Turn the cookies over and bake until golden on the other side, 8 to 10 more minutes. Transfer to a wire rack to cool. The centers will be slightly soft at first, but will crisp up as they cool.

ORANGE-CHOCOLATE CHIP BISCOTTI



Orange-Chocolate Chip Biscotti image

This is yet another wonderful, fabulous, delightful recipe from Alice Medrich ("Cookies and Brownies"). It took me a lot of work to track down this cookbook, which is out of print -- everything I've made from it has been first-rate. They need to bring this back into print!

Provided by KLHquilts

Categories     Dessert

Time 2h

Yield 45 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 10

1 2/3 cups all-purpose flour
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1/4 teaspoon salt
2 large eggs
3/4 cup sugar
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1/4 teaspoon orange extract
2/3 orange, zest of
2 tablespoons orange juice (fresh only!)
1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 300. Position rack in the middle of oven.
  • Combine flour, baking soda, and salt; mix thoroughly with fork.
  • Whisk together the eggs, sugar, vanilla and orange extracts, and orange zest in a medium bowl.
  • Mix in the orange juice.
  • Using a rubber spatula, stir in dry ingredients until just combined.
  • Stir in chocolate chips.
  • The batter will be thick and sticky (typical biscotti batter). Scrape the batter onto a baking sheet. (I cover my baking sheet with aluminum foil, then spray it with baking spray.) Using two spatulas, divide batter into two loaves, about 14" long and about 2.5" wide. Try to put at least 2.5" between the loaves; straighten the edges of the loaves with spatulas.
  • Bake for 35 minutes, or until firm but springy when pressed with fingers.
  • Cool for ten minutes in the pan. Then move loaves to a cutting board, and with a sharp knife (serrated is best), slice loaves on teh diagonal in 1/2" slices.
  • Lay the biscotti on the baking sheet, cut side down, and bake for another 12 minutes.
  • Take the biscotti out of the oven, turn them over, and bake another 12-15 minutes, or until golden brown.
  • Note: If you don't want the biscotti to pick up a darker color, handle the second baking this way: Rather than laying the slices cut-side down, stand them upright, and bake them for a total of 24-30 minutes.
  • Remove the biscotti from the oven and cool on a cooling rack.
  • Medrich notes that the flavor will become stronger, and the biscotti will become more tender, after being stored for 2-3 days in an airtight container.

  • 6. Lay the dough on a slightly floured surface. With floured hands, shape dough into a log that will fit on your cookie sheet....10x2 or 13x2.5. Measurements doesn't have to be exact. Transfer the log onto the prepared baking sheet and shape it up a bit more. Repeat with other half of dough. Set logs 2-3 inches apart on the baking sheet.

  • Chill the dough for at least 30 minutes before slicing and baking. This will help the biscotti hold their shape.
  • Bake the biscotti until they are golden brown and firm. If they are too soft, they will not be crispy.
  • Let the biscotti cool completely before storing them. This will help them keep their crispness.
