- Beat well with a mixer at medium speed. Whisk 3 cups flour, cocoa powder, baking powder and salt together in a separate bowl. Add to egg mixture. Beat at low speed until ingredients are combined. Increase speed to medium and mix until well blended. Stir in walnuts. Add additional flour if needed to shape dough easily.

- To prepare icing, combine all ingredients; mix well. Drizzle on top of cooled biscotti.
- *I have substituted melted white chocolate chips and drizzled on biscotti.
