📝 Preparation Steps
1
Preheat oven to 300F. Line baking sheet with parchment paper.
2
Combine flour, salt, and baking powder in a large bowl. Set aside.

Add Mix-ins
6
Gradually stir egg mixture in with the flour mixture. Mix in the chocolate chips, nuts, and dried fruits, if using, by hand. Dough may be sticky; place in fridge for ⏱️ 30 minutes to help firm it up a bit.
7
Divide Into Logs
8
Divide dough into equal thirds - using wet hands here will help with sticky fingers. Form each third into logs, about 12"x3" each, on the parchment lined cookie sheet.
9
Bake ⏱️ 35-40 minutes on middle rack, until lightly brown and mostly firm to the touch. Place light cloth over logs and cool for at least ⏱️ 30 minutes or until they are almost room temp. Reduce oven temperature to 275F.
10
Slice
11
Carefully cut cooled logs on diagonal, into slices that are a little less than 1" thick. Depending on your knife, you might either press down very gently to get clean cuts, or you might use a gentle sawing motion. I use my sharp bread knife.
12
Second Bake
13
Lay Biscotti onto their sides, on parchment covered baking sheets. Bake ⏱️ 10 minutes. Flip and bake ⏱️ 10 minutes more. Biscotti is done when they feel dry. Cool on cooling racks.
14
Drizzle Chocolate
15
Melt white chocolate in small bowl in microwave, in approx. ⏱️ 30 second increments, until smooth and melted. Transfer melted white chocolate into a plastic baggie, cut a very tiny hole in bottom corner, and drizzle over Biscotti.
