Peppermint Mocha Biscotti is a delicious and festive treat that is perfect for the holiday season. This crunchy and flavorful biscotti is infused with the flavors of rich chocolate and refreshing peppermint, making it a perfect accompaniment to your morning coffee or afternoon tea.

To make this Peppermint Mocha Biscotti, you will need the following ingredients per serving:

- 1/2 cup all-purpose flour
- 1/4 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
- 1/4 tsp baking soda
- 1/4 tsp salt
- 1/4 cup granulated sugar
- 1/4 cup brown sugar
- 1 egg
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 1/4 cup semisweet chocolate chips
- 1/4 cup crushed peppermint candies

To start, preheat your oven to 350°F and line a baking sheet with parchment paper. In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, cocoa powder, baking soda, and salt. In a separate bowl, beat together the granulated sugar, brown sugar, egg, and vanilla extract until smooth. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture, stirring until a dough forms. Fold in the chocolate chips and crushed peppermint candies.
On the prepared baking sheet, shape the dough into a log that is about 1/2 inch thick and 2 inches wide. Bake for 25-30 minutes, or until the log is firm to the touch. Remove from the oven and let cool for 10 minutes.
Using a sharp knife, slice the log into 1/2 inch thick pieces. Arrange the slices on the baking sheet and bake for an additional 10-15 minutes, or until the biscotti are crisp and dry. Let cool completely before serving.
This Peppermint Mocha Biscotti is a perfect combination of rich chocolate and refreshing peppermint flavors. The crunchy texture and festive appearance make it a great addition to any holiday gathering or gift basket. Enjoy with a hot cup of coffee or tea for the ultimate holiday treat.
