INGREDIENTS :

Unsalted butter - 3 tbsps
Sugar - 1/4 cup
Salt - 1/4 tsp
Vanilla extract - 2 tsps
Baking powder - 1/2 tsp
Egg - 1
Maida - 1 cup
Cocoa powder - 1 tsp
Almond milk - 1/4 tsp
METHOD OF PREPARATION :

1 . Preheat the oven to 200 deg.c for 5 minutes. In a bowl, beat the egg well with butter, sugar, salt, vanilla, almond extract and baking powder until the mixture is smooth and creamy. 

2. The batter may be slightly curdled. Add the flour and mix, the dough will be sticky. 

3. Place the dough in the baking sheet .Bake the dough for 25 minutes. Remove it from the oven. Cool for 10 mins. 

4.Slightly wet the crust of the dough with slightly wet hands. Slice it with a knife. 

5.Reduce the oven temperature to 180 deg.c. Return the biscotti to the oven, and bake them for 25 to 30 minutes, until they golden and crunchy. They'll still feel a tiny bit moist in the very center, if you break off a piece; but they'll continue to dry out as they cool. Remove the biscotti from the oven and cool them.
