  • Divide the batter in half and place each half on a parchment-lined baking sheet. Wet your hands and pat the dough into a loaf about 10 inches long, 2½ inches wide, and ½-inch thick.
  • Bake the biscotti for 18-20 minutes or until the edges become golden brown.
  • Allow the biscotti to cool, then slice each loaf into 10 (½-inch thick) slices (I like to slice them on an angle but that’s up to you).
  • Place the biscotti cut side up on the baking sheet and bake for another 15-17 minutes, or until the biscotti are dried and crisp. Allow the biscotti to cool completely before dipping in chocolate.
  • To make the dipping chocolate, add the chocolate chips to a small microwave-safe bowl and microwave until melted, about 2 minutes, stirring every 30 seconds. Dip or drizzle the chocolate over the biscotti and place them back on the baking sheet.

  • Transfer the biscotti to the refrigerator and allow the chocolate to set for about 30 minutes.

Notes

  • You can tell the biscotti is done baking when it's firmed and lightly brown. Don't wait for it to turn too dark!
  • You must allow the biscotti to cool before cutting into it after it bakes for the first time. If you skip this step, your biscotti will most likely become crumbly and lose shape.
  • Remember to also allow the biscotti to fully cool before storing it in an airtight container, or the heat will create steam.
Storage: Store chocolate dipped biscotti in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 2 weeks or in the freezer for up to 1 month.
