Prep: 15 minutes
Bake: 45 minutes
Total: 1.5 hours
Yields: 36 cookies
Ingredients
Ingredients:
- 3¼ cups all-purpose flour
- 1 tablespoon baking powder
- ¾ teaspoon salt
- 1 cup packed light brown sugar
- ½ cup unsalted butter, softened
- 3 large eggs
- 1 tablespoon vanilla extract
- 1 cup diced mango from Local Fare Jax
- ¼ cup diced jalapenos, seeds removed, from Local Fare Jax
- White chocolate melting wafers, optional
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 375℉. Line two baking trays with parchment paper. Set aside.
- Combine flour, baking powder, and salt together in a large bowl. Set aside.
- In a stand mixer fitted with a paddle attachment, add powdered sugar and butter.
- Beat together on medium speed until light and fluffy.
- Add eggs and vanilla. Beat again until light and fluffy. Scrape down the sides of the bowl.
- Slowly add the dry ingredients ⅓ at a time. Stop when just combined. If dough is too dry, add a splash of whole milk.
- Fold-in diced mangoes and jalapenos.
- Divide the dough into two equal portions. Shape the dough into a log with your hands and place each half onto prepared baking tray. Flatten to ½-inch thick.
- Bake each tray one at a time in the preheated oven for 30-35 minutes, or until the edges are browned.
- Remove the tray from the oven and transfer the biscotti onto a wire rack, still on the parchment paper. Allow to cool for 10 minutes. Re-line each baking tray with parchment paper. Keep oven preheated.
- Using a sharp knife, cut the biscotti into slices, about ½-inch thick. Lay the slices onto the prepared baking tray, cut-side facing upward.
- Bake the biscotti again for 5-7 minutes, then flip each cookie over and bake for an additional 5-7 minutes, or until toasted and browned. Transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.
- Melt the white chocolate in the microwave until smooth. Use a spoon or piping bag to drizzle the white chocolate over one side of each biscotti. Place the biscotti into the refrigerator for 10-15 minutes, or until the white chocolate has hardened. Enjoy!
