From Mimi's wonderful Christmas Cookie website: Walnut Cappuccino Biscotti

I was looking for something a little different for the biscotti lineup this year. This one got good reviews.

Thanks Mimi!

Walnut Cappuccino Biscotti

2-1/2 cups all-purpose flour

1 cup granulated sugar

1/4 cup brown sugar

2 tablespoons cocoa powder

4 teaspoons coffee beans ground for espresso

1 teaspoon baking soda

1 cup toasted California walnuts, chopped

3 eggs

2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil

1/8 cup whole milk

Preheat the oven to 350º F. In a mixer bowl using a paddle attachment, mix all of the ingredients until a sticky dough is formed.

Place dough onto a floured surface. Divide evenly into two pieces. Roll the dough into two 12 inch logs. Place on a parchment-lined or greased baking sheet and pat the logs down flat - approximately 3 1/2 inches wide. Bake the logs until they spring back when pressed lightly.

Allow the logs to cool, then using a bread knife, cut into biscotti about 1/2 inch thick. Arrange the biscotti on the baking sheet, flat on their side.

Bake again, at 350º F, for 8 more minutes. Let cool. Store in an airtight container.

Is that ground coffee beans, or coffee beans ground? Measured after grinding?

That's a darn good question! I wonder if Marilyn can ask Mimi?

I think you measure 4 tsp coffee grounds, then grind
