Before going in the oven

 

 

Vanilla and Chocolate Biscotti

 

 

 

Chocolate Biscotti Ingredients

1 cup Maseca®
1 ½ tablespoon baking powder
3 eggs
½ teaspoon splenda
½ cup slivered almonds
¼ cup unsweetened cocoa

 

Vanilla Biscotti Ingredients

1 cup Maseca
1 ½ tablespoon baking powder
3 eggs
½ teaspoon splenda
1 tablespoon vanilla extract

I am also thinking of doing a Key Lime flavored Biscotti (just by adding the key lime juice and zest to the vanilla biscotti)

Hint ( I would add more splenda mine taste bland)

Directions

 

Preheat oven to 350degrees

 

Mix all ingredients until a heavy and homogenous consistency has been reached.   Place masa in a 1 ½” thick greased baking tray. Bake for 350°F for 20-30 minutes or until a toothpick inserted comes out clean.  Bread will be hard.  Cut in equal size pieces with a serrated knife.

These are my Chocolate ones

These are the Key Lime ones

 

 

 

I will have to add more flavoring to them next time....they were very bland (both flavors). I hope they taste better dunked in tea or coffee for now.
