Time 2h

Yield about 30 cookies

Number Of Ingredients 11

1 3/4 cups all-purpose flour, plus more for dusting
1/4 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
2 tablespoons instant espresso powder
3/4 teaspoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon salt
6 tablespoons unsalted butter, at room temperature
1 cup sugar
2 large eggs, at room temperature
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 cup blanched hazelnuts

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Whisk the flour, cocoa powder, espresso powder, baking powder, baking soda and salt in a medium bowl. Beat the butter and sugar in a large bowl with a mixer on medium-high speed until light and fluffy, 3 to 5 minutes. Beat in the eggs one at a time, then beat in the vanilla. Reduce the mixer speed to low; add the flour mixture and beat until just incorporated, then beat in the hazelnuts.

Tips:

  • Use high-quality coffee: The flavor of the coffee will shine through in the biscotti, so use a coffee that you enjoy drinking. A dark roast coffee will give the biscotti a richer flavor.
  • Don't overmix the dough: Overmixing will make the biscotti tough. Mix just until the ingredients are combined.
  • Chill the dough before baking: Chilling the dough will make it easier to handle and will help the biscotti hold their shape.
  • Bake the biscotti until they are dry and crisp: The biscotti should be baked until they are dry and crisp on the outside and slightly chewy on the inside. If the biscotti are too soft, they will not be able to hold their shape.
  • Dip the biscotti in chocolate: Dipping the biscotti in chocolate is a great way to add extra flavor and richness. You can use dark chocolate, milk chocolate, or white chocolate, or a combination of chocolates.

Conclusion:

Mocha biscotti are a delicious and easy-to-make treat that are perfect for any occasion. They are crispy, chewy, and full of coffee flavor. These biscotti are also very versatile. You can dip them in chocolate, add nuts or dried fruit, or simply enjoy them plain. No matter how you choose to enjoy them, mocha biscotti are sure to be a hit.
