Ingredients
Biscotti
- 1/4 cup unsalted butter (softened)
- 1 1/2 cup brown sugar
- 1/2 cup pumpkin puree
- 2 eggs
- 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
- 2 teaspoons pumpkin pie spice

Directions
Biscotti | |
Step 1 | |
Preheat oven to 350 In a large mixing bowl cream the butter and brown sugar. | |
Step 2 | |
Mix in pumpkin puree. Add eggs and vanilla and mix again. | |
Step 3 | |
Mix in pumpkin pie spice and baking powder. Add flour and mix just until fully incorporated. Stir in chips or nuts, if desired. | |
Step 4 | |
Form dough into two loafs about 12x4" each (dough will be sticky - use flour on your hands to help make it easier to shape the loaves). Bake on silicone baking mats or parchment paper lined cookie sheets for 30 minutes. | |
Step 5 | |
Allow the loaves to cool for about 5 minutes then cut each loaf into about 16 slices. (I like to cut each loaf in half, then cut each half into 8 slices). Bake 5 minutes more with the cut side down. | |
Step 6 | |
Flip the biscotti over and bake 5 more minutes or until firm. Allow to cool completely. | |

Step 7 | |
Once the biscotti are cool, dip one end into the melted chocolate and set on wax paper to dry. Drizzle with white chocolate and allow to set before storing in a sealed container. |
