Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350° F. Coat a baking sheet with parchment paper or spray with cooking spray.
- In a small bowl, mix baking powder, spices, salt and flour. Set aside.
- In a stand mixer, beat together butter and sugar on medium speed, until fluffy. Add eggs, one at a time. Next, add molasses and vanilla extract. Mix until well incorporated. Keeping the mixer on low, add flour mixture from small bowl.
- Spray hands with cooking spray and break the dough into two pieces. Shape each half into a rectangle. Place on baking sheet.
- Bake until golden brown, around 25 to 27 minutes. Let cool for 20 minutes and reduce oven heat to 325° F.
- Using a sharp knife, slice each loaf into1/2- to 3/4-inch slices. Place each of the slices back onto cooking sheet, cut side down, and bake until toasted (about 8 minutes).
- While the biscotti is toasting, melt white chocolate chips in the microwave, according to package. Put the melted chocolate in a sandwich baggie and snip off a very small piece of the corner. Once the cookies are out of the oven, drizzle with chocolate and sprinkles.
