A quick and easy Italian cookie to accompany your morning cup of coffee or tea. Did I forget to mention these taste fantastic? By far my favorite biscotti…
Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Line two baking sheets with parchment paper.
In a mixing bowl cream sugar and butter until fluffy.
Mix in eggs one at a time just until combined.
In a separate bowl whisk together flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.
Slowly add dry ingredients into the the creamed butter and egg mixture.
Finally stir in chopped peanuts, peanut butter chips and chopped Reese’s Peanut Butter Cups
Divide dough into two equal parts and spread onto prepared baking sheets to form one small log about 8 x 4 on each.
Bake for 30 minutes rotating sheets half way through baking.
Remove from the oven, reduce oven temperature to 325 degrees F and allow the biscotti logs to cool for 10-15 minutes.
With a long serrated knife slice the logs into 1/2 inch slices, then place back on the baking sheets and bake for another 20 minutes rotating sheets once more half way through baking.

These are fantastic; they manage to hit the middle ground between dry and sturdy and tender and giving way. I used a little less sugar (1/2 cup less) and not quite 1/2 a teaspoon of salt so that the finished product (after the addition of extra sweets and salty peanut butter) wouldn’t be too over the top, and what I got was perfect, to my taste. The dough is subtle enough as to be the perfect canvas for the studding of nuts, candy, and peanut chips. I found that one or two minutes could easily be shaved off of the baking times (especially in the second go-round) to prevent over-browning. Keep an eye on these, especially toward the end of the instructed baking time.
I’m so glad you shared these with us. Thanks!
