Low Fat Dunking Almond Biscotti - cooking recipe

Ingredients

2 cups flour
2 tablespoons flour
1 teaspoon baking powder
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/8 teaspoon baking soda
1 cup sugar
2 large eggs
2 large egg whites
1 tablespoon almond extract
1 teaspoon almond extract
2 -3 ounces sliced almonds, lightly toasted and coarsly chopped
2 -4 tablespoons mini chocolate chips

Preparation

Sift together the first 4 ingredients in small bowl.
Beat together the next 4 ingredients.
Add the flour mixture to the egg mixture and combine on low speed of mixer.
Add the almonds and chocolate chips.
Preheat oven to 325.
Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper.
Using a spoon, scoop the dough in two lines down the length of the baking sheet (use two if you need to), keeping them about 3 inches apart.
They'll be about 12\"- 14\" X 2\" strips.
Bake until firm and barley showing color, about 25-30 minutes.
Cool on rack 10 minutes.
Lower oven temperature to 300.
Take the strips and slice them cross-wise into about 1/2\" slices.
Return to the baking sheet, and standing them upright with some space between them, bake for an additional 30-35 minutes until crisp and very light golden.
Cool and store in an air tight container.
