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, about 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. Serve.
- Store cookies in a tightly sealed container for up to 3 days.
AMAZING PEANUT BUTTER CUP BISCOTTI
My family loves biscotti, so I brought together peanut butter chips and chocolate chips to make another flavor for our biscotti jar. Hubby claims that these are amazing, hence the name Amazing Peanut Butter Cup Biscotti. Wrapped in cellophane bags, they are perfect for bake sales.

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.

Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
- In a large bowl, combine that flour, baking powder and cinnamon. Place the peanut butter in a medium bowl and microwave at high power to soften, 5 to 10 seconds. Whisk in the milk, then stir the mixture into the dry ingredients.
- Shape the dough into a long, flattened log and place on a greased baking sheet. Bake for 20 minutes; remove from the oven and let cool for 10 minutes. Slice the log crosswise on an angle into 1-inch-thick pieces. Set the slices on their sides (they should look like biscotti) and bake until crisp, 10 to 12 minutes more. Transfer to a rack to cool.
- Melt the carob in a microwave or on the stovetop over low heat. Thin the melted carob with 1 tablespoon water, if needed. Using a spoon, drizzle the melted carob over the biscuits. Let cool completely. Store in an airtight container.

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees. In the bowl of an electric mixer, whisk together flour, granulated sugar, baking powder, anise seeds, salt, and nuts. Transfer to mixer fitted with the paddle attachment. Add eggs; beat until a stiff dough comes together, about 3 minutes.
- Divide dough in half. Form each half into a 12-inch log. (Dough may be sticky; dampen your hands for easier handling.) Transfer to a parchment-lined baking sheet and flatten so each log is 13 inches long, 2 1/4 inches wide, and 3/4 inch thick.
- Brush logs with beaten egg and sprinkle with sanding sugar. Bake until firm and very pale golden, about 35 minutes. Let cool on pans on a wire rack, 40 minutes. Meanwhile, reduce oven temperature to 300 degrees.
- Using a serrated knife with a sawing motion, cut logs into slices slightly thicker than 1/4 inch. Arrange, cut-side up, on parchment-lined baking sheets. Bake until dry to touch, about 30 minutes. Let cool completely on pans on racks, 30 minutes. Store in an airtight container up to 1 month.
Tips:
- Use high-quality peanut butter: The type of peanut butter you use will make a big difference in the flavor of your biscotti. Look for a brand that is made with 100% peanuts and no added sugar or salt.
- Don't overmix the dough: Overmixing the dough will make the biscotti tough. Mix just until the ingredients are combined.
- Chill the dough before baking: Chilling the dough will help it hold its shape better in the oven. It will also help prevent spreading. If the dough tries to soften, put it back in the refrigerator.
- Bake the biscotti until they are golden brown: The biscotti should be baked until they are golden brown on the outside and firm to the touch. If they are not baked long enough, they will be soft and chewy. If they are baked too long, they will be hard and crumbly.
- Slice the biscotti while they are still warm: The biscotti are easier to slice while they are still warm. Use a serrated knife to get clean, even slices. You can also use cookie cutters to cut the biscotti into fun shapes.
- Store the biscotti in an airtight container: The biscotti can be stored in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 2 weeks. They can also be frozen for up to 2 months.
Conclusion:
These power peanut butter biscotti are a delicious and nutritious snack that is perfect for on-the-go. They are also a great way to use up leftover peanut butter. With their chewy texture and nutty flavor, these biscotti are sure to be a hit with everyone who tries them.
