Ingredients
For the biscotti:
- 6 Tablespoons unsalted butter softened
- ¾ cup granulated sugar
- 2 large eggs
- ½ teaspoon lemon extract
- 1 lemon zested (about 1 teaspoon zest)
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
For the garnish:
- ¾ cup Ghirardelli white chocolate melting wafers
- 1 lemon zested
- 2 Tablespoons granulated sugar
Instructions
- In a large mixing bowl, beat butter and sugar for two minutes until well blended. Add in eggs, lemon extract and lemon zest. Add flour and baking powder, mixing until combined, and dough comes together.
- Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper or silpat. Place dough on baking sheet and press (using floured hands) into a 12inch x 4inch rectangle.
- Bake for 25 minutes in a 350 degree oven. Remove and cool 10 minutes.
- Slice in 3/4-1inch slices. Turn each slice carefully onto it's side. Return to oven and bake 8 minutes.
- Flip to opposite side and bake an additional 8 minutes. Remove and cool completely.
- In a small bowl combine lemon zest and granulated sugar. Mix with a fork until combined.
- Dip tops of each cooled biscotti into melted white chocolate and immediately sprinkle with lemon sugar. Allow to set (about 10 minutes) and enjoy.
- Store in an airtight container or ziploc bag for up to 10 days. ENJOY.
Notes
- The biscotti will look soft when you first take them out of the oven. Don’t worry–this is expected! They’ll get harder and crunchier as they cool.
- Use a serrated sharp knife when cutting biscotti. So much easier than a smooth blade and creates a perfect cut.
- Drizzle the melted white chocolate over the biscotti instead of dipping if you prefer. Both ways look beautiful.
- Store homemade lemon biscotti in an airtight container or ziploc bag. They will keep for about 10 days.
