1 (12 ounce) bag semisweet chocolate chips

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
  • Line 2 baking sheets with parchment paper.
  • Mix the milk and vanilla extract together in a small bowl; set aside.
  • Combine the flour and baking powder in a separate bowl.
  • Beat the peanut butter, brown sugar, and white sugar with an electric mixer in a large bowl until smooth.
  • Add the eggs one at a time, allowing each egg to blend into the peanut butter mixture before adding the next.
  • Pour in the flour mixture alternately with the milk, mixing until just incorporated.
  • Fold in the peanut butter chips; mixing just enough to evenly combine.
  • Divide the dough into 4 equal parts.
  • Roll each section into a 4x5-inch rectangle about 1/2-inch thick.
  • Transfer the dough pieces onto the prepared baking sheets.
  • Bake in the preheated oven until firm to the touch, about 25 minutes.
  • Place biscotti loaves on wire racks to cool.
  • Reduce oven temperature to 300 degrees F (150 degrees C).
  • Cut each loaf into 1/2-inch slices.
  • Return the slices to the baking sheets with the cut sides up.
  • Bake in the oven until biscotti are dry, about 10 minutes on each side.
  • Cool in the pans for 10 minutes before removing to cool completely on a wire rack.
  • Melt the chocolate chips in a microwave-safe glass or ceramic bowl in 30-second intervals, stirring after each interval, until melted and smooth, 1 to 3 minutes (depending on your microwave).
  • Dip the cooled biscotti into the melted chocolate. Set the biscotti onto parchment paper, and allow to set, about 20 minutes.

Categories     Dessert

Time 1h25m

Yield 5 dozen

Number Of Ingredients 10

10 tablespoons unsalted butter (1 stick plus 2 tablespoons)
2 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
2 3/4 teaspoons baking powder
1/2 teaspoon salt
3 large eggs
1 1/4 cups sugar
2 teaspoons pure vanilla extract
1/2 cup smooth natural-style peanut butter, room temperature
1 1/4 cups dry roasted peanuts
1 1/4 cups chopped dark chocolate (about 6 ounces) or 1 1/4 cups semisweet chocolate chunks (about 6 ounces)

Steps:

  • Position racks evenly in the oven and preheat to 350 degrees F. Line 3 baking sheets with parchment paper.
  • Melt the butter over medium heat, swirling the pan occasionally. Continue to cook until the butter browns and gets a nutty aroma, about 5 minutes. Let cool slightly.
  • Whisk the flour, baking powder and salt together in a large bowl.
  • Beat the eggs in a medium bowl with an electric mixer until light and pale yellow, about 2 minutes. Gradually add the sugar while beating. Then slowly add the butter and vanilla until evenly mixed, about 30 seconds more. Add the peanut butter and mix until combined.
  • While mixing slowly, add the dry ingredients to the wet, in 2 additions, mixing just until absorbed. Fold in the peanuts and chocolate pieces.
  • Divide the dough evenly into thirds and put each portion in the center of a baking sheet. Shape the dough with slightly wet hands into logs about 2-inches wide and 15 inches long. Bake until set and brown around the edges, 25 to 30 minutes. (For even baking take care to rotate the pans--top to bottom and front to back--about half way though.) Cool logs on the baking sheets for about 10 minutes.
  • Lower the oven temperature to 325 degrees F. Carefully transfer the logs to a cutting board. Cut logs crosswise, with a long serrated knife at about a 45 degree angle, into 1/2-inch thick cookies. Place cookies cut side down on the baking sheets. Bake until crisp, about 8 minutes. Flip the cookies over and bake until golden brown, about 8 minutes more. Cool biscotti on the baking sheets.

Time 2h15m

Number Of Ingredients 16

CHOCOLATE DOUGH
1/2 c butter, room temperature
1 c sugar
3 eggs
3 3/4 c all-purpose flour
1 /4 c cocoa powder
2 tsp baking powder
1/2 tsp salt
PEANUT BUTTER DOUGH
3/4 c crunchy peanut butter
1 c sugar
3 eggs
3 1/2 c all-purpose flour
2 tsp baking soda
1/2 tsp salt
coating chocolate

Steps:

  • 1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
  • 2. Chocolate dough: In a medium bowl, mix together flour, baking powder, salt, and cocoa. Set aside.
  • 3. Cream together butter and sugar.
  • 4. Add eggs one at a time; mixing well after each addition.
  • 5. Add 1/3 of the flour mixture at a time to the creamed mixture mixing well after each addition.
  • 6. The dough will be stiff.
  • 7. For peanut butter dough: In a medium bowl, mix together flour, baking powder, and salt. Set aside.
  • 8. Cream together peanut butter and sugar.
  • 9. Add eggs one at a time mixing well after each addition.
  • 10. Mix in 1/3 of flour mixture at a time, mixing well after each addition. Note: You may not have to add all of the flour. Dough will be dry.
  • 11. If it is too dry and crumbly, knead in a tablespoon (more or less) of water until the dough just comes together.
  • 12. Divide both the chocolate and the peanut butter dough into 2 equal halves.
  • 13. On a floured surface (I use cocoa), shape half of the chocolate dough into a flat rectangle, about 15 inches long and 5 inches wide.
  • 14. Shape peanut butter dough into a log, a little shorter than the chocolate log, and about 2-3 inches wide.
  • 15. Place in the middle of the chocolate log and gently fold the chocolate dough up over the peanut butter dough.
  • 16. You want to wrap the peanut butter dough completely with the chocolate dough. Repeat with the other dough.
  • 17. Place the 2 logs on a parchment lined baking sheet.
  • 18. Flatten slightly. You want a log about 15 inches long, 4 inches wide and 1 - 1 1/2 inches high.
  • 19. Bake 30 - 35 minutes in a 350 degree oven.
  • 20. Remove from oven to a cooling rack and cool for 10 minutes. Reduce oven temperature to 325 degrees.
  • 21. Slice diagonally into 1/2" - 3/4" slices.
  • 22. Place slices on a parchment lined baking sheet and bake a second time for 20-25 minutes.
  • 23. Remove from baking sheet to a cooling rack and cool completely.
  • 24. Melt coating chocolate according to package directions.
  • 25. Coat one side of cooled biscotti with the chocolate.
  • 26. Allow to set. (If you prefer, you could drizzle the chocolate over the biscotti.)

Tips:

  • Use high-quality peanut butter and chocolate chips for the best flavor.
  • Chilling the dough for at least 30 minutes before baking will help it hold its shape.
  • Slicing the biscotti twice will help them bake evenly.
  • Storing the biscotti in an airtight container will help them stay fresh for up to two weeks.

Conclusion:

These peanut butter and chocolate biscotti are a delicious and easy-to-make treat. They are perfect for snacking, dessert, or as a gift. With their rich peanut butter flavor and chocolate chips, these biscotti are sure to be a hit with everyone who tries them.
