Ingredients

1/4 cup light olive oil

3/4 teaspoon almond extract
1/2 teaspoon lemon extract (optional)
1 1/4 teaspoons lemon juice
1 tablespoon lemon zest, finely grated

Preheat oven to 300°F.
On a lined baking sheet, form dough into two logs (12 x 2 in) - if dough is too sticky, wet hands with cold water.

Reduce oven to 275°F.
Cut logs diagonally into 3/4-inch think slices; lay on their sides on same baking sheet. Return to oven another 8-10 minutes, or until dry.

Tips:

Use high-quality chocolate for the best flavor. A dark chocolate with a cocoa content of at least 70% is ideal.
Don't overmix the dough. Overmixing will make the biscotti tough.
Chill the dough for at least 30 minutes before baking. This will help the biscotti hold their shape.
Bake the biscotti until they are golden brown and crisp. This will ensure that they are cooked through.
Slice the biscotti while they are still warm. This will make them easier to cut.
