Categories     dessert

Time 3h

Yield about 24 cookies

Number Of Ingredients 13

1 1/2 cups unsweetened coconut flakes
1 cup granulated sugar
2 cups all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon baking powder
1/4 teaspoon baking soda
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/3 cup coconut oil
1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
1/2 cup salted macadamia nuts, chopped
1 cup confectioners' sugar
2 tablespoons coconut cream
1/8 to 1/4 teaspoon coconut extract
Coarse sugar, for decorating

Steps:

  • Position racks in the upper and lower thirds of the oven; preheat to 350 degrees F. Spread 1 cup coconut flakes on a baking sheet and bake until toasted, about 3 minutes. Let cool completely. Transfer to a food processor; add the granulated sugar and pulse until finely ground. Line 2 baking sheets with parchment paper.
  • Whisk the coconut-sugar mixture, the flour, baking powder, baking soda and salt in a bowl. Melt the coconut oil in the microwave; add to the flour mixture along with the vanilla and 1/3 cup water and mix with a wooden spoon until a stiff dough forms. Stir in the macadamia nuts and the remaining 1/2 cup coconut flakes; gently knead until the dough comes together.
  • Divide the dough in half and shape into two 9-by-2-inch logs; place 1 log on each baking sheet. Bake, switching the pans halfway through, until the logs are firm and golden, about 25 minutes. Reduce the oven temperature to 300 degrees F.
  • Let the logs cool 10 minutes, then transfer to a cutting board; slice diagonally with a serrated knife into 3/4-inch-thick pieces. Arrange the slices cut-side down on the baking sheets. Bake, flipping halfway through, until just golden and the centers still have a little give, 20 to 25 minutes. Let cool completely on the baking sheets. (The biscotti will crisp as they cool.)
  • Whisk the confectioners' sugar, coconut cream and coconut extract until smooth. Dip the biscotti in the glaze; sprinkle with coarse sugar.

Categories     Dessert

Time 1h

Yield 24 biscotti

Number Of Ingredients 10

2 1/4 cups unbleached all-purpose flour (10-1/8 oz.)
1 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
1/4 teaspoon table salt
1/2 cup unsalted butter, softened (4 oz.)
3/4 cup firmly packed light brown sugar
2 large eggs, at room temperature
1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
1/2 cup firmly packed sweetened flaked coconut
1 cup semisweet mini chocolate chips
1 cup toasted almond, chopped (optional)

Steps:

  • In a medium bowl, whisk the flour, baking powder, and salt.
  • In a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, beat the butter and sugar on medium speed until light and fluffy, 2 to 3 minutes.
  • Add the eggs one at a time, mixing on medium speed after each addition until incorporated.
  • Mix in the vanilla and then the coconut until well combined.
  • With the mixer on low speed, gradually add the flour mixture and mix just until combined.
  • The dough will be sticky.
  • With the mixer still on low, mix in the chocolate chips (and almonds, if using) .
  • Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and refrigerate for 30 minutes.
  • Position a rack in the center of the oven and heat the oven to 350°F.
  • Line a large cookie sheet with parchment.
  • Divide the dough into equal halves and place on the cookie sheet.
  • Working on the sheet, shape each half into a loaf about 10 inches long, 3 inches wide, and 3/4 inch high.
  • Bake until the tops are browned, cracked, and crusty, and spring back slightly when gently pressed, 30 to 35 minutes.
  • Cool about 30 minutes on the cookie sheet.
  • Reduce the oven temperature to 325°F.
  • Transfer each loaf to a cutting board and with a sharp serrated bread knife, cut 1/2-inch slices crosswise on the diagonal.
  • When slicing, hold the sides of the loaf near each cut to keep the slices neat.
  • Put the slices cut side down on the cookie sheet and bake until the biscotti are dried and the cut surfaces are lightly browned, 15 to 20 minutes. Transfer the cookie sheet to a rack and let the biscotti cool completely. The biscotti may give slightly when pressed but will harden as they cool.

Number Of Ingredients 9

1/2 cup sugar
1/2 cup butter, softened
2 tablespoons vanilla
2 eggs
1 1/2 cups shredded coconut, lightly toasted
1 1/2 cups flour
1 teaspoon baking powder
1/2 cup toasted almond, chopped (optional)
1/2 cup milk chocolate chips or 1/2 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips, melted

  • In a large bowl cream together sugar and butter.
  • Add vanilla, eggs and coconut.
  • Add 1/2 cup flour and baking powder, mix well. Add remaining flour.
  • Stir in nuts if desired.
  • On a large sprayed cookie sheet divide dough in half and shape into two logs. (I usually spray my hands with non stick cooking spray for this.).
  • Bake for 20-25 minutes.
  • Reduce oven temp to 300.
  • Cool for 5-10 minutes remove logs from cookie sheets to a cooling rack. Cool for 10-15 minutes.
  • Cut logs into 3/4 inch slices and place back on cookie sheet, bake for 15-20 minutes or until desired crispness.
  • Cool completely and either dip or drizzle with melted chocolate.
  • Store in a air tight can or jar. Do not store in plastic.

Tips:

  • Use high-quality ingredients: The better the ingredients, the better the biscotti will be. Look for fresh, organic ingredients whenever possible.
  • Don't overmix the dough: Overmixing will make the biscotti tough. Mix just until the ingredients are combined.
  • Chill the dough before baking: This will help the biscotti hold their shape and prevent them from spreading too much.
  • Bake the biscotti until they are golden brown: This will ensure that they are cooked through and have a crispy texture.
  • Slice the biscotti while they are still warm: This will make them easier to cut and prevent them from crumbling.
  • Store the biscotti in an airtight container: This will help them stay fresh for up to 2 weeks.
