chocolate mint almond biscotti

Living in a cold place like Utah, I drink A LOT of hot chocolate. Like, way too much.  And I love having something delicious to dip into it, like homemade biscotti. Starting my day with dessert, as I should. Win in my book!

With St. Patrick’s Day coming up quickly, I thought it would be fun to make a St. Paddy’s Day themed biscotti I could dip in White Hot Chocolate dyed green. (This decadent hot chocolate will be coming soon, so check back to get the recipe). What goes better with chocolate than mint? (Peanut butter, but I already eat way too much peanut butter, so these will do).

These are really easy to make. They taste amazing, and keep well in an air tight container. I dipped them in a Creme De Menthe flavored candy wafer (Made by Choco Maker), I just bought it at Wal-Mart. But I am not sure if they are at every Wal-Mart. If you can’t find mint flavored dipping wafers, just use white chocolate chips, and add a few drops of mint extract. It will taste amazing. Or you can try vanilla flavored, and skip the mint all together. These are a few options if you can’t find the ones I mentioned. Don’t dispair. This recipe is good with just white chocolate drizzles too:

You could replace the milk with coffee if you would like a stronger flavor. We just aren’t coffee drinkers, and I think they work perfectly with milk, so why bother? The dough is thick, so it takes some muscle to incorporate it all, but stick with it, it will be worth your while! When cutting it, be sure to keep it stuck together. The outside will be crispier than the inside, so if it starts to break apart, just kind of mush it back together. Don’t worry it will all work out! And even if it isn’t pretty it will taste great.chocolate biscotti

This recipe makes about 30 biscotti, and they are fairly good sized. If you want them to be smaller, just cut them smaller! It is up to you. But I hope you enjoy this recipe as much as I did.

    These are so festive! I'd definitely love to have some of these to eat with a nice cup of coffee! I'm also from a cold climate (Boston) so I totally understand how great it is to sit down with a hot drink and a delicious treat :).
