Ingredients
Instructions
-
Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
-
In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, cocoa powder, baking powder, and salt.
-
In a large bowl, cream together the butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar until light and fluffy. Beat in the eggs, one at a time, followed by the vanilla extract and peppermint extract.
-
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined. Stir in the chocolate chips and crushed candy canes.
-
Divide the dough in half. Shape each half into a 10-inch (25 cm) long log and place them on the prepared baking sheet.
-
Bake for 25-30 minutes, or until firm to the touch. Remove from the oven and let cool for 15 minutes.
-
Reduce the oven temperature to 325°F (160°C). Slice the logs diagonally into 1/2-inch (1 cm) thick slices. Place the biscotti cut side down on the baking sheet and bake for an additional 10-15 minutes.
-
Remove from the oven and transfer the biscotti to a wire rack to cool completely.
