Chocolate Pistachio Cantucci (Biscotti) is on the menu in Chef Anna Olson's amazing kitchen, and she is going to teach you how to make this delicious recipe from scratch! Follow along with the recipe below!

Recipe

Yield: About 2 dozen
Prep Time: 20 minutes
Cook Time: 1 hour

Ingredients

4 large eggs, at room temperature
1 large egg yolk
1 ¼ cups (250 g) granulated sugar (caster sugar)
2 tsp (10 mL) vanilla extract
2 cups (300 g) all-purpose flour
½ cup (60 g) cocoa powder (Dutch process or regular)
1 ½ tsp (7 mL) baking soda
½ tsp (2 mL) salt
1 ¼ cups (170 g) shelled unsalted pistachios
1 cup (150 g) chopped dark chocolate chunks or chips

Directions

1. Preheat the oven to 350 F (180 C) and line a baking tray with parchment paper.

2. With electric beaters or a stand mixer fitted with the whip attachment, whip the eggs, yolk, sugar and vanilla on high speed until it holds a ribbon when the beaters are lifted, about 3 minutes.

3. Sift the flour, cocoa powder, baking soda and salt and fold this into the whipped eggs until fully incorporated (the mixture will deflate a little, and seem like a cake batter in consistency). Stir in the pistachios and chocolate chunks (or chips) and spoon this onto the prepared baking tray and spread into the rough shape of a single log – the batter will be soft, so don’t worry if the shape isn’t too precise. Bake this for about 35 minutes, until a tester inserted into the centre of the cantucci log comes out clean – because of the melted chocolate chunks within, you may have to test in a few places. Allow this to cool for about 20 minutes and reduce the oven temperature to 300 F (150 C).

4. Remove the cantucci log to a cutting board and use a serrated knife to slice across the width into cookies that are ½-inch thick. Arrange these on the lined baking trays (you’ll need 2 trays for this step) and bake for 12 minutes. Remove the trays from the oven and flip the cantucci over, returning to the oven to bake another 12 minutes. Cool the cantucci on the tray. If you find that after cooling, the cantucci aren’t crunchy all the way through, you can return them to the oven to bake a few more minutes.

The cantucci will keep up to 2 weeks in an airtight container.

I really like her as a baker. It is no frills baking and not some of the wilder giant cakes and stuff we see on here. She also explains with a depth of knowledge and a calm, soothing voice.

I just made this as it is, but replaced pistachios with almond and changed the shape of the biscotti. They taste divine! Thanks for the recipe Anna 🙏🏻

Amazing biscotti recipes. I have made the almond and craisin one using orange zest from clementines. That seems to provide more of a citrus kick! Additionally, I reduce the second baking time in half by putting the initial cut cookies on metal cooling racks that can be placed in the oven. By baking with both sides exposed, it saves some baking time when you are making multiple batches for the holidays. These cookies keep very well in tins and actually get tastier over time. 💚

I love your kitchen! I feel certain that we would bake more if we’re more accessible, and not so much work to clear the counters and haul the big heavy tubs of flour and sugar, hunt down the measuring utensils, etc.
