Directions
Chocolate Walnut Biscotti,I love biscotti of all sorts, and this recipe, packed with walnuts in a double chocolate dough, is just delicious. Adopted from Mean Chef in September 2006, I have left the original directions intact, but added my comments and notations in parentheses. As presented, this yields about 30 six inch long cookies. If you want smaller biscotti, divide the dough into 3 logs, and reduce your baking time accordingly.,So I kept going back to the ingredients list and I just knew that something was missing. After I put these came out and I tasted it, i knew what it was. No fat. It made for a dry ,unpalatable biscotti. You need at least 4 to 8 tablespoons of butter or a 1/2 cup of vegetable oil. I will not be making this again.,Wonderful biscotti recipe! Easy to make with gluten free flour, too, I just had to add a tad milk to get the dough kneadable (gluten free sometimes needs a bit more liquid). used 80% chocolate, and they’re so chocolatey! Thanks for sharing. Made this for the Cook-A-Thon in memory of Half Baked Cappy.
