Chocolate hazelnut biscotti is a delightful Italian cookie that combines the rich flavors of cocoa and hazelnuts with a hint of citrus from orange zest. Perfect for dipping in your morning coffee or enjoying as an afternoon treat, this biscotti is both crunchy and flavorful. Easy to make and even easier to enjoy, let's dive into this delicious recipe.
- Toasting the hazelnuts before baking will enhance their flavor. Simply spread them on a baking sheet and roast in a preheated oven at 350°F (175°C) for about 10 minutes, then let them cool before adding to the dough.
- For a more intense chocolate flavor, you can add chocolate chips or chunks to the dough.
- To achieve the perfect biscotti texture, make sure to slice the logs while they are still slightly warm. This will prevent them from crumbling.
- If you prefer a softer biscotti, reduce the second baking time by a few minutes.
- Store your biscotti in an airtight container to keep them fresh and crunchy for up to two weeks.
Making chocolate hazelnut biscotti at home is a rewarding experience that yields delicious, dunkable cookies perfect for any time of day. By following these tips and using quality ingredients, you can create biscotti that rivals those found in the best Italian bakeries. Enjoy the process and savor every bite!
