How to Make Chocolate-Dipped Almond Biscotti

  • Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  • Whisk the flour, granulated sugar, baking powder, and salt together in a large bowl.
  • Beat the eggs with the vanilla and almond extracts in another bowl until well combined.
  • Combine the wet and dry ingredients gradually, stirring until just mixed.
  • Fold in the toasted sliced almonds.
  • Shape the dough into two logs, each about 12 inches long and 2 inches wide.
  • Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes or until the logs are golden brown.
