Method

  • Step 1

    Preheat oven to 150°C. Line two large baking sheets with parchment paper. 

  • Step 2

    Attach the hand mixer attachment to the power base, then assemble the beaters. Add eggs, sugar, and vanilla extract to a large bowl. Select power, starting on speed 1, increasing to speed 4 until mixture is pale in colour and thick about 1 minute.

  • Step 3

    Sift flour, cocoa powder, baking powder and salt into egg mixture. Select power, begin mixing on speed 1, increasing to speed 3, mix until fully incorporated.

  • Step 4

    While still mixing, add zest, hazelnuts, and chocolate chips.  

  • Step 5

    Spoon dough onto prepared tray in the shape of a loaf sized approximately 35cm x12cm, using extra flour to aid shaping. Transfer to oven and bake for 50 minutes. 

  • Step 6

    After 50 minutes, turn oven to 135°C. Remove loaf from the oven and let cool for 10 minutes.  

  • Step 7

    Once dough has cooled down slightly, slice loaf into 1cm thick slices using a serrated knife. Divide individual slices between both baking sheets and place back in the oven for 25 minutes. 

  • Step 8

    Allow biscotti to cool down completely on a wire rack before serving. Enjoy with tea or coffee.
