Chai Chocolate Chip Biscotti - cooking recipe

Ingredients

2 1/3 cups all-purpose flour
1 cup sugar
3/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/2 teaspoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon ground allspice
1/4 teaspoon ground cardamom
1/4 cup chai tea, strongly brewed, room temperature
1 egg
1 egg white
1 tablespoon milk, fat-free
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1/2 cup walnuts, chopped (I'll use almonds)
1/2 cup miniature semisweet chocolate chips

Preparation

In a large bowl, combine the flour, sugar, all the spices, baking powder, baking soda and salt.
In a small bowl, whisk the tea, egg, egg white, milk and vanilla.
Stir the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients just until combined.
Stir in the nuts and chocolate chips.
Divide dough in half and wrap each portion in plastic wrap and refrigerate one hour.
On a baking sheet coated with cook spray shape each half into a 10x2-inch rectangle.
Bake at 350F for 20-25 minutes or until golden brown. Place pans on wire racks.
When baked dough is cool enough to handle transfer to a cutting board and using a serrated knife cut diagonally into 3/4-inch slices.
Place cut side down on the baking sheets (lightly coated again with spray).
Bake an additional 6-9 minutes on EACH SIDE until firm. Remove to wire racks to cool. Store in an airtight container.
