Ingredients

Servings
  • 1 cup granulated sugar
  • 1 Tablespoon water hot
  • 3 egg large
  • ½ teaspoon peppermint extract
  • 1 Tablespoon instant coffee or espresso powder
  • 2 cups all-purpose flour divided, + 2 Tablespoons
  • ¾ cup unsweetened cocoa powder divided, + 2 Tablespoons
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • ¼ teaspoon kosher salt
  • 1 package 11 ounce white chocolate morsels
  • 6 peppermint candy canes crushed

Instructions

  1. In mixer, beat sugar, hot water, eggs, instant coffee and peppermint extract together until smooth and creamy. Slowly add in 2 cups flour, 3/4 cup cocoa, baking soda and salt.
  2. Batter will be very sticky. Line two cookie sheets with silpat or parchment paper. In small bowl mix 2 Tbsp of cocoa powder with 2 Tbsp flour.
  3. Divide dough in half and sprinkle parchment with flour/cocoa mixture. With hands, press dough into two rectangles, about 4 in by 12-inch (and 1/4 inch high).
  4. Bake in a 350 degree oven for about 15-20 minutes. Remove and let cool 10-15 minutes. Slice rectangles into 1/2inch to 3/4 inch wide slices. Lay each slice on it’s side and put back in the oven (on the parchment lined baking sheet) for an additional 15 minutes.
  5. Remove from oven and allow to cool completely on wire rack.
  6. Melt white chocolate morsels according to package directions, Spread bottoms of each biscotti with white chocolate then dip into the crushed candy canes. Allow to set, about one hour. Makes about 18 large biscotti. Enjoy!

Notes

  • Storage- These keep well at room temperature in an airtight container for a few weeks. Biscotti also freeze well! Store them in a freezer safe bag or container for up to 3 months.
  • Peppermint hard candies work in a pinch as a substitute for the candy canes.
  • The instant coffee does NOT make this taste coffee flavored, it just enhances the chocolate flavor.
  • Want a classic chocolate biscotti? Replace the peppermint extract in the dough with vanilla extract and skip the candy cane topping.
