white chocolate hemp coconut biscotti

All you need is a hot latte for dunking and your on route to white chocolate coconut hemp seed heaven!

I will confess these biscotti started life with the aspiration to be a blondie… but they demanded more from their lives… and their maker… after too long in the oven in too deep a pan this blondie in it’s under baked glory was sliced thin and re-toasted making some really yummy dunkers!

I have successfully made really nice brownies with this recipe in a 9×14 pan.. but I pushed the limits trying to cram all this goodness into a 9×9 deep square… so try this either way.

in a double boiler melt:

1 cup oil / butter

200 g white chocolate

along with a splash of real vanilla

In a seperate bowl mix:

4 eggs

1 1/4 cup organic cane sugar

2 cups of organic flour (white or spelt)

1 cup of hemp seeds

1/2 cup coconut

2 tbsp coconut milk powder

pinch of salt

combine with melted chocolate and pour into prepared pan:

9×13, bake at 325 for 35 minutes for a blondie

or

pour batter as I did into thicker smaller pan, then bake at 375 for 40 minutes, remove from oven cool 5 minutes, then slice into 1/2″ slices lay on cookie sheet and toast at 400 for 15 more minutes. If you have extra white chocolate a little drizzle would be peachy on your finished biscotti!

When life gives you lemons.. make coconut biscotti!
