Preparation
Step 1
Directions
To prepare the biscotti: Preheat the oven to 350°F. Coat a large baking sheet with cooking spray.
In a mixing bowl, combine the flour, sugar, cocoa, baking powder, cinnamon, and salt. Stir to mix.
In another bowl, combine the egg, egg whites, margarine, and vanilla extract. Beat with a fork until well blended. Add to the reserved dry ingredients. Stir until well blended. Stir in the chocolate. Coat hands lightly with cooking spray. Shape the dough into a 12" log. Place on the baking sheet and pat to flatten slightly.
Bake for 25 minutes. Remove the cookie log from the oven and let stand for about 15 minutes, or until cool enough to move. With a serrated knife, cut into 1/2" thick slices. Place cut sides down on the baking sheet. Bake for about 20 minutes more, or until crisp. Remove cookies to a rack and cool completely.
To prepare the glaze: In a small bowl, mix the confectioners' sugar and milk until smooth. Drizzle each biscotti with glaze.
