Quadruple chocolate biscotti
Heat oven to 350 degrees Mix together, then blend in food processor or blender until finely ground: 4 oz. Semi-sweet chocolate, coarsely chopped (variation: use 3 oz semi-sweet, 1 oz unsweetened for a richer taste) 1 cup light brown sugar Mix together in a medium bowl: 1 3/4 cups all purpose flour 1/2 cup unsweetened cocoa 2 tbsp instant coffee 1 tsp baking soda 1/4 tsp salt Beat together until fluffy 4 tbsp butter The chocolate/brown sugar mix 3 eggs (not extra large or jumbos--your dough will be too sticky) 1 1/4 tsp vanilla 1/2 tsp almond flavoring Mix the flour etc. by hand into the butter/sugar/eggs etc. With 1 cup coarsely chopped almonds 1 cup chocolate chips Blend these ingredients just until the flour streaks no longer show. The dough will be lumpy and somewhat sticky. With dampened hands (works better for shaping the dough) pat out into two logs about 10" long and 2" in diameter Place on parchment papered cookie sheet (i've never tried it with a greased cookie sheet, but it probably would work if you don't have parchment paper or teflon liners, which by the way, are worth every penny of their expensive cost). Dough spreads as it bakes. Bake at 350 for 25-30 minutes or until fairly firm and top has cracks in it. Remove from oven and cool on racks for about 10-15 minutes. Reduce oven heat to 325. With a very sharp knife slice logs across on the diagonal, 1/3-1/2 inch thick. Place flat side down on cookie sheets (lined or greased) and bake for 18-20 minutes or until firm and dry. Cool and ice with chocolate chips or semi-sweet bakers chocolate melted in a double boiler over a low flame (microwaving is OK, but sometimes the chocolate burns if you leave it in just a few seconds too long). <a href= http://www.worldfamousrecipes.com/index.php >Famous Recipes</a> <a href= http://www.worldfamousrecipes.com/ >World Famous Recipes</a> <a href= http://www.navending.com/ >Vending Machines</a> <a href= http://smsac.blogspot.com/ >sms.ac</a> <a href= http://www.sell2us.net/stopforeclosure.htm >Stop Foreclosure</a> <a href= http://www.auntiebelhams.com/ >Pigeon Forge Cabins</a> <a href= http://quotations.home.att.net/ >Famous Quotes</a> <a href= http://groups.yahoo.com/group/chicken-recipes-mailing-list/ >Chicken Recipes</a> Yahoo!
