The best start of the day is a perfect cup of coffee and a tasty Cappuccino Biscotti next to it. Crunchy dark chocolate dipped Cappuccino Biscotti is a cookie worth waking up for and perfect for dunking into a hot cup of coffee.

BISCOTTI RECIPE

“Can you pick me up a cappuccino, please!?”

I send this text message to my husband so often, I have it saved as a template on my phone. Yes, I love coffee and I can’t live without it. South American, African, Arabian, Espresso,  French Roast, or Vienna, yes, I will take them all and preferably in an IV.

I’m just kidding, I have my favorite blend for espresso and for coffee. I love Espresso Bel Canto and make a special trip to Whole Foods to get the beans every week.  My day instantly gets better once I get a cappuccino in my hand.

This kind of coffee love is true but it comes with a price. It can get quite expensive to get a cappuccino at a coffee shop every day.

Biscotti are twice-baked, crispy cookies. Many different flavors can be added to biscotti but a combination of chocolate and cappuccino is my favorite. I also like to bake it a little bit less the second time so the cookies are not as crunchy. Although, it’s a personal preference and doesn’t affect the delicious taste.

Ingredients

  • 3 eggs
  • 1/2 cup vegetable oil
  • 1/4 cup espresso 1 shot
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 3 3/4 all purpose flour
  • 1 1/2 tsp baking powder
  • 1/2 cup white granulated sugar
  • 3/4 cup brown sugar
  • 10 oz dark chocolate melting wafers

Instructions

  • Prepare espresso and let it cool down.
  • Preheat the oven to 325 and line a large baking sheet with parchment paper.
  • In a large bowl, whisk together eggs, oil, vanilla extract, and espresso until smooth.
  • Whisk in both sugars.
  • Add flour and baking powder and start whisking until it becomes too thick. You can either use a rubber spatula or your hands to finish mixing the ingredients. The dough will be thick but still sticky.
  • Grease your hands with a little bit of oil so the dough doesn't stick to your hands and it's easier to handle.
  • Separate the dough, place them on the prepared baking sheet in two and form each piece into a roll that's a little less than an inch thick and about 4 inches wide. Leave a little space between the logs.
  • Bake for about 30 minutes. Take out of the oven and immediately cut the loaves into about 1/2 inch thick slices with a serrated knife.
  • Place the slices on its sides and bake for another 15-20 minutes. (You can bake a few minutes less or more depending on how crispy you like your biscotti.)
  • Let biscotti cool completely before dipping in chocolate.
  • Melt dark chocolate wafers in the microwave or in a double boiler.
  • Dip each biscotti bottom in chocolate and place the biscotti back on the baking sheet upside-down (chocolate covered bottom will be up) so that it solidifies evenly. Placing it upside down is not necessary but it looks nice.
  • (*Keep biscotti in an airtight container, like a cookie jar at room temperature.)

      Yes, it’s 3 3/4 cups of flour and it will make about 14-16 depending on how big you slice them.

    I’ve never had espresso – what does 1 shot mean? Can I just buy some already brewed espresso & measure out 1/4 cup? Thank you!

      Hi Janet,

      The standard for one espresso shot is one to 1.25 ounces you can use expresso powder but if you don’t want to buy a whole jar you can go to a coffee shop and just buy a shot of expresso and use that. Let me know how it goes!
