Chocolate, toffee and espresso are made for one another in my opinion. And this biscotti is screaming to be dipped into a good cup of coffee.

How To Make mocha toffee biscotti

  • 1
    BASIC BISCOTTI DOUGH:
  • 2
    In large bowl, beat butter with sugar until fluffy; beat in eggs, 1 at a time. Beat in vanilla.
  • 3
    Whisk together flour, baking powder and salt; stir into butter mixture, in 2 additions, just until combined.
  • 4
    MOCHA TOFFEE BISCOTTI PREPARATION:
  • 5
    Stir together dough, chocolate chips and 3/4 cup of the toffee bits until combined. Divide dough in half.
  • 6
    On lightly floured surface, shape each half into 12-inch (30 cm) long log. Place, 2 inches (5 cm) apart, on parchment paper–lined rimless baking sheet; press to flatten slightly. Stir egg white with 1 tsp water; brush generously over tops of logs.
  • 7
    Bake in 325 F (160 C) oven just until light golden and firm to the touch, about 35 minutes. Let cool on pan on rack for 10 minutes.
  • 8
    Transfer logs to cutting board. Using sharp chef 's knife, cut diagonally into 1/2-inch (1 cm) thick slices. Stand slices upright, about 1/2 inch (1 cm) apart, on baking sheet. Bake in 300 F (150 C) oven until almost dry, about 35 minutes. Transfer to rack; let cool completely.
  • 9
    In heatproof bowl over saucepan of hot (not boiling) water, melt chocolate, stirring until smooth; whisk in espresso powder until dissolved. Let cool slightly. Dip 1 end of each biscotti in chocolate mixture, letting excess drip off.
  • 10
    Place on parchment paper–lined baking sheet; sprinkle remaining toffee bits over chocolate. Refrigerate until chocolate is set, about 20 minutes.
