• Servings: 15
• 1 cup whole wheat flour
• 1 cup whole wheat flour
• 1 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
• 1/4 teaspoon salt
• 6 tablespoons unsalted butter
• 2/3 cup sugar
• 2 large eggs
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
• 1 cup toffee pieces

Recipe

• 1 preheat oven to 350.
• 2 in a medium bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder and salt.
• 3 in a large mixing bowl, add butter and sugar - beat together until smooth. add in the eggs, one at a time, beating until well combined. be sure to scrape down the sides at least once. mix in vanilla. add the flour mixture and toffee bits - gently mixed until well combined.
• 4 scoop the dough onto a parchment lined baking sheet and shape into a 14" long by 2 1/2" wide log. this dough will be a bit sticky, so use wet fingertips to help you along in shaping. it should be about 3/4" thick.
• 5 place in the oven and bake until the top feels firm - about 25 minutes. remove the pan from the oven and reduce the temperature to 325. let cool for 15 minutes, then lightly spritz the log with water - then let sit for 5 more minutes. use a serrated knife to cut the log into 3/4" thick diagonal slices.
• 6 place the sliced pieces upright back on the baking sheet and return it to the oven. bake until the biscotti are a light golden - about 25-30 more minutes. remove and place on a wire rack to cool completely.
