Walnut Cappuccino Biscotti

Makes about 48

2-1/2 cups all-purpose flour
1 cup granulated sugar
1/4 cup brown sugar
2 tablespoons cocoa powder
4 teaspoons coffee beans ground for espresso
1 teaspoon baking soda
1 cup toasted California walnuts, chopped
3 eggs
2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
1/8 cup whole milk

Preheat the oven to 350º F. In a mixer bowl using a paddle attachment, mix all of the ingredients until a sticky dough is formed.

Place dough onto a floured surface. Divide evenly into two pieces. Roll the dough into two 12 inch logs. Place on a parchment-lined or greased baking sheet and pat the logs down flat - approximately 3 1/2 inches wide. Bake the logs until they spring back when pressed lightly.

Allow the logs to cool, then using a bread knife, cut into biscotti about 1/2 inch thick. Arrange the biscotti on the baking sheet, flat on their side.

Bake again, at 350º F, for 8 more minutes. Let cool. Store in an airtight container.

Would make this again.
Made these for Christmas last year and they were very easy to put together and went over very well. I needed to add some extra flour to roll out and shape the dough, but it didn't make the dough dry. Candied walnuts would probably be great, I'll have to try that next time. four stars

Really good, although I used about a cup of melted cappacino chocolate morsels in place of the coffee. four stars
