Ingredients
- 4 cups all-purpose flour
- ¼ cup plus 2 tablespoons sugar, divided
- 2 teaspoons baking powder
- ¼ teaspoon salt
- 1 lemon, zested and juiced
- 9 tablespoons butter, melted
- 1 teaspoon vanilla
- 1 ¼-1 ½ cups heavy cream, divided
White Chocolate Topping:
- ½ cup white chocolate
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 1 lemon, zested
- Flaky sea salt
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees and line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Set aside.
- In a large bowl, use a hand or stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment to mix together the flour, ¼ cup sugar, baking powder, salt and zest of 1 lemon. With the mixer running on low, add the melted butter, lemon juice, vanilla and 1 ¼ cups of cream until the dough just comes together. If mixture is too dry and crumbly, add more cream, about 1 tablespoon at a time, until the dough just comes together.
- Divide dough into two equal portions and shape each into a rectangle about 12 inches long, 6 inches wide and ½ inch thick. Smooth out any cracks in the dough and place on the prepared baking sheet.
- Brush about 2 tablespoons of cream over the dough and sprinkle with remaining 2 tablespoons sugar. Bake for 20 minutes. Allow to cool slightly, then slice each rectangle into ½-inch pieces of biscotti. Return sliced biscotti to the baking sheet and bake for an additional 30 minutes, flipping halfway through. Set biscotti aside to cool completely.
- Meanwhile, in a microwave-safe bowl, combine the white chocolate and oil. Microwave on high in 10-second increments, stirring between each, until chocolate is completely melted and smooth.
- Drizzle chocolate over cooled biscotti and sprinkle with remaining lemon zest and flaky sea salt. Allow chocolate to set completely before serving or gifting.
