Chocolate Biscotti (Lowfat)

Author/Submitted by: FF Mailing List (Christel Reeve)
Servings: 18
Categories: Biscotti / Chocolate / Cookies / Desserts / Low-Fat/Low-Cal

Ingredients:
1  cup  flour
1/2  cup  sugar, or more
1/2  cup  cocoa
2  teaspoons  almond extract
2  whole  Egg Beaters 99% egg substitute
3/4  teaspoon  baking powder
1/4  teaspoon  salt
  splash  liquor, Chambord
    semisweet chocolate, melted;optional

Directions:
1. Combine flour, sugar, cocoa, salt and baking baking powder. Separately, mix flavoring and eggs. Combine. Add splash of liquor or water as needed to have a sticky consistency. If the mixture is too stiff, it won't spread out properly.

2. Put this glob on a greased cookie sheet and arrange it into a log about 15 inches long and 1 1/2 - 2" wide. Bake at 350 for 25 minutes. Remove from oven, let cool a few minutes, then slice diagonally into 1/2- 3/4" slices. I got 18 pieces from mine. Place the slices on their side and put back in the oven (300 degrees) for 15 minutes. Turn over and cook another 10-15 minutes.

3. If you can afford the fat, a small drizzle of semisweet chocolate is wonderful on these when cooled. I used about 2 T. for all the cookies, which added about 6 g. fat to the recipe or 1/3 g. fat each one.
