PAX Cooking #7: American Style Gianduja Biscotti
-
Recipe (link is being weird, here it is) : kingarthurbaking.com/recipes/american-style-vanilla-biscotti-recipe
The gianduja variation comes from their Cookie Companion book which substitutes hazelnut flavor for the vanilla and adds 1c (113g) of chopped toasted hazelnuts and 1c (170g) of semisweet chocolate chips. The nuts and chips are stirred in along with the flour. To toast the hazelnuts, just throw em on a sheet pan at 300F for about 20-25 mins. The smell will let you know when they’re done and they’re usually sweating.
Original thread and explanation of why I’m doing this here
A forever favorite of everyone in my house, but I actually prefer the Italian style biscotti with a coffee. I used to work really hard on shaping them just right and measuring my width on the cuts to have everything perfect but then I watched my family eat them like they were throwing em in a wood chipper and decided that was too much work.

PAX cooking #1: Blueberry muffins - sh.itjust.works
Recipe here [https://www.kingarthurbaking.com/recipes/blueberry-muffins-recipe]. It’s PAX West time again here in Seattle, so I’m cooking for the army of people that come in for it. Both my brothers, their families, my family, kids’ friends, and brothers’ friends. We have access to a microwave right next door to the venues via a brother’s hotel room, so I’m cooking for a couple of days so we don’t spend thousands of dollars between us on trashy garbage food. Not that I’m not making trashy garbage food. It turns out kids will eat any old trashy crap I throw at them after they’ve burned 5,000 calories walking for 12 hours. I don’t normally cook this way, but it’s been fun to do some nasty, “back of the condensed cream of chicken label recipe from the 80s” style garbage. Starting tomorrow I’m cooking the good stuff. Pasta Fagioli, scones, pesto beans, those big ass sandwiches you squish with a cast iron pan, ziti, and baked spaghetti. Maybe rajma and pizza if I’m up to it.
