Preparation
- Step 1
Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Sift together the flour, cocoa, cinnamon, baking soda and salt. Stir in the almonds. In a large bowl, whisk together the whole eggs, yolks, sugar and orange zest. Add the dry ingredients and mix until a dough forms.
- Step 2
Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured surface and divide in half. Coat your hands with flour and shape each piece into a log about 12 inches long. Place the logs on a baking sheet lined with parchment.
- Step 3
Bake until lightly browned, about 25 minutes. Lower the oven temperature to 325 degrees. While the logs are still warm, cut them on the diagonal into ½-inch-thick slices. Place cut-side down on 2 parchment-lined baking sheets and bake until firm, about 20 minutes. Place on a rack and let cool completely.

Unfortunately these were so rock hard they were nearly inedible - even after soaking in coffee! . I had to throw away the entire batch. I run a B&B and make a different biscotti recipe each week, and I've never had them come out like this. Perhaps due to the lack of oil or fat in the ingredients?
