Instructions
- Preheat oven to 375F. Line a cookie sheet with parchment paper. Set aside.
- In a large bowl, mix together the melted butter, sugar, eggs, and molasses, combining well.
- In a separate bowl, combine the remaining ingredients. Whisk dry ingredients together to incorporate.
- Mix dry ingredients together with butter mixture, and continue to work it until a thick dough forms.
- Divide dough in half. Shape each half into logs about 12x3 inches. Place on parchment lined cookie sheet. Pat each log down to about 1/2 inch thick.
- Bake for 25 minutes. Remove from oven (still keep oven on,) and allow it to cool enough to handle.
- Using a sharp bread knife, cut each log into 3/4 inch thick diagonal slices. Place each sliced biscotti on its side, and bake about 7-8 minutes.
- Turn each cookie over and bake another 7-8 minutes or until cookies feel dry and are turning crispy.
- Let cool completely to room temp. If desired, drizzle with melted white chocolate or your choice of icing.

- Always use room temperature eggs, as they will mix more easily into the batter and help the biscotti to rise properly.
- When shaping the dough into logs, slightly wet your hands to prevent the dough from sticking to your fingers. This also helps to give the biscotti a smoother, more even texture.
- After the first bake, allow the logs to cool for a few minutes before slicing. This will make them easier to cut and will give you neater, more even slices.
- Make sure to keep an eye on the biscotti as they bake for the second time. They can go from perfectly crispy to overly brown in a short time.
