Steps:
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- Using an electric mixer, beat the butter and sugar together until creamy.
- Add the eggs and vanilla extract. If you would like to add almond extract or anise extract, add it now. Mix until well combined.
- In a medium bowl, whisk together the all purpose flour, white whole wheat flour, baking powder and salt.
- Add the flour mixture to the mixing bowl and mix on low speed until combined, scraping down the sides of the bowl as needed.
- Divide the dough in half. Shape each half into a ball and then use your hands to shape each ball into a log that is about 8 inches long.
- Place the logs on the prepared baking sheet. Use your hands to flatten the dough logs until they are about 3/4-inch thick. Gently press the sides and ends of the logs to even them out and flatten them.
- If desired, sprinkle the logs with turbinado sugar.
- Bake for 20-25 minutes, until lightly golden and the center of the logs is almost firm and bounces back when touched.
- Let the logs cool on the baking sheet for 30 minutes.
- Use a sharp knife to cut the logs into biscotti shape, on the diagonal. Press straight down with the knife, rather than sawing.
- Place the biscotti, cut side up, on the baking sheet. Bake for 12-16 more minutes, until dry. The centers of the cookies will be slightly soft and will crisp as they cool.
- Store biscotti in an airtight container at room temperature for 1-2 weeks or in the freezer for 3 months.
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- Using an electric mixer, beat the butter and sugar together until creamy.
- Add the eggs and vanilla extract. Mix until well combined.
- In a medium bowl, whisk together the cocoa powder, all purpose flour, white whole wheat flour, baking powder and salt.
- Add the flour mixture to the mixing bowl and mix on low speed until combined, scraping down the sides of the bowl as needed.
- Mix in the chocolate chips and nuts, if using.

NONNA'S BISCOTTI
A few years ago, I copied down my Italian grandmother's recipes. She had collected them all in a box, in preparation for moving to a retirement community. Unfortunately, during the move, she lost the box, and now I'm the sole recipient of her culinary heritage. She was a fine cook, and a wonderful baker. She died a few months ago.
