2. In a food processor, combine 2 Tbsp. of the hazelnuts, the flour, 2 Tbsp. of the chocolate chips, the cocoa, espresso pwdr, baking soda and salt. Process till the nuts are finely grnd. Transfer dry ingredients to a large bowl. In the same food processor, combine the sugar, Large eggs, egg whites and vanilla till slightly thickened, about 2 min. Add in to the dry ingredients. Stir in remaining hazelnuts and chocolate chips
3. Spoon 1/4 of the batter (about 3/4 c.) into a rope about 14 inches long and 1 1/2 inches wide, on one side of the baking sheet. Repeat, with two ropes on each baking sheet. Place one sheet on each rack. Bake, reversing sheets once, till hard, about 15 min. Cold 10 min. Reduce the oven temperature to 300 degrees.
4. Place the logs on a cutting board. With a serrated knife, cut into 1/2-inch slices, making about 80 biscotti. Place the slices upright on the baking sheets, 1 inch apart. Bake till the cut sides feel dry to the touch, 20 to 25 min. Cold completely on a wire rack. Store in an airtight container. -
