Equipment

  • 2 Baking Sheets
  • Parchment Paper

Ingredients

Biscotti:

  • 2 ½ cups All-purpose flour
  • ¼ cup Sprinkles
  • 1 teaspoon Baking powder
  • ½ teaspoon Baking soda
  • ½ teaspoon Salt
  • 1 cup Granulated sugar
  • 4 Large eggs
  • 1 teaspoon Almond extract
  • 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract

Glaze:

  • 2 cup Powdered/Icing/Confectioner’s Sugar
  • 2 tablespoon Melted butter
  • 2 tablespoon Milk
  • 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
  • ½ teaspoon Almond Extract
  • Pinch salt

Instructions

Biscotti:

  • Preheat oven to 350F, Line 2 large baking sheets with parchment paper, spray with pan spray.  Set aside.
  • In a large bowl, combine the flour, sprinkles, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. Set aside.
  • In a separate bowl, whisk together sugar, eggs, and extracts until well combined and smooth. Pour into the bowl with the dry mixture, stir to combine.
  • Divide dough in half, form into 2 long, wide loaves on the prepared pan.
  • Bake for 20-25 minutes, until golden brown on the outside.  Remove from oven, turn heat down to 250F.
  • Allow loaves to cool for 5 minutes.
  • Cutting on a slight diagonal, slice each loaf into ½" slices.
  • Arrange slices on the pans - still lined with parchment.  Bake for 15 minutes, flip each piece over and bake for another 15 minutes, or until desired texture.
  • Remove from oven, allow to fully cool.

Glaze:

  • Whisk together glaze ingredients until smooth. If too thick to spread, microwave for 10 seconds at a time, stirring until runny.
  • Spread over tops of cooled biscotti, immediately sprinkling with more sprinkles, if using. Allow glaze to fully harden before transferring biscotti to an airtight container.
