Categories     Dessert

Time 1h5m

Yield 2 1/2 dozen

Number Of Ingredients 9

1 (20 ounce) package fudge brownie mix
3/4 cup ground almonds
1/2 cup all-purpose flour
3/4 teaspoon baking powder
1 egg
3 egg whites
1 teaspoon almond extract
1/4 cup sliced almonds (optional)
3 ounces white baking chocolate (or dark chocolate) (optional)

Steps:

  • In a large bowl, combine the brownie mix, ground almonds, flour and baking powder. In a small bowl, whisk egg, egg whites and extract. Add to brownie mixture; stir until combined.
  • Divide dough into thirds. On a greased baking sheet, shape each portion into a 7 inch. x 3-1/2 inch rectangle.
  • Bake at 350° for 24 minutes. Remove from the oven; cool on baking sheet for 5 minutes.
  • Move to a cutting board and cut diagonally with a serrated knife into 3/4 inch slices. Place cut side down on greased baking sheets. Bake 12-14 minutes longer or until firm.
  • Cool on wire racks. If desired, sprinkle with sliced almonds and drizzle with white or dark chocolate. Let stand until chocolate is completely set. Store in an airtight container.

Tips:

  • Ensure that your oven is preheated to the correct temperature before baking the biscotti. This is crucial for achieving the desired texture and consistency.
  • Use high-quality ingredients for the best flavor and texture. Look for chocolate with a cocoa content of at least 70% and roasted almonds for a nutty flavor.
  • Don't overmix the dough, as this can result in tough biscotti that lack a crisp texture.
  • Make sure to chill the dough before shaping it. This makes it easier to handle and helps prevent the biscotti from spreading too much during baking.
  • For a more rustic look, use your hands to shape the dough instead of using a rolling pin. This will give the biscotti a more uneven shape and texture.
  • Bake the biscotti until they are golden brown and firm to the touch. You should be able to see small cracks on the surface of the biscotti when they are done baking.
  • Wait until the biscotti have cooled completely before slicing them. This will help prevent them from crumbling.

Conclusion:

Brownie almond biscotti are a delicious and easy-to-make treat that can be enjoyed with coffee or tea. They are also a great gift idea for friends and family. With a few simple tips, you can make perfect biscotti every time.
