I love the holidays. I also love biscotti. So, for the holidays, here’s a chocolate and pistachio biscotti recipe!

I know I just repeated the same thing twice in the last sentence, but I like being clear! Ha! Ha!

This recipe is perfect to make with friends or kids on a Sunday morning at home when love is in the air. It’s a nice elegant dessert that pairs well with a cup of coffee or glass of milk.

Bon appétit!

Ingredients

3/4 cup all-purpose flour
1/4 cup cocoa powder
1/2 cup sugar
1 teaspoon baking powder
Pinch of salt
1/2 cup pistachios
1/4 cup dark chocolate chips
2 eggs
1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
1/2 cup white chocolate
1-2 tablespoon cream

Steps

Preheat the oven to 350˚F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Set aside.
In a large bowl, combine the flour, cocoa powder, sugar, baking powder, salt, pistachios, and chocolate chips.
Make a small well in the centre and add the eggs and vanilla extract. Mix until the texture resembles dough.
Wet your hands, make the dough into a sausage shape on a baking sheet (see video), and bake for 30 minutes. Remove from the oven and let cool for 20 minutes.
Lower the oven to 300˚F.
Cut the sausage diagonally, so as to form nice biscotti. Place on a baking sheet and bake for 10–15 minutes. Remove from heat and let cool completely.
Melt the white chocolate and cream and drizzle over the biscotti.
