For the Outer Pastry

230g 00 Flour

100g Powdered Sugar

1 Tsp Baking Powder

100g Cold Butter

1 Egg

For the Filling

300g Chocolate Cake

50g Hazelnuts

150g Black Cherries in Syrup

For the Topping

80g Powdered Sugar

Instructions:

Add the flour, powdered sugar, butter and baking powder for the pastry to a bowl and using your hands crush to a bread crumb texture.

Add the egg and bring together.

Turn out onto your work surface and knead to form a smooth dough.

Wrap in cling film and refrigerate for 30 minutes.

Place all of the ingredients for the filling into a blender and blend to bring together.

Dust your work surface with flour and roll this filling to a long sausage around 30-35cm long and set aside.

Roll out the pastry and cut into a rectangle 4-5mm thick and 30-35cm by 15-17cm.

Place the filling ‘sausage’ in the centre of the pastry and then roll over the sides to form your base shape.

Trim the edges and then slice into 1-1.5cm segments.

Place on a baking tray and bake in the oven at 180°C or 350°F for 5 mins.

Whilst this is baking whisk the egg white for the topping, and then add in the powdered sugar and whisk to form a sugar paste.

Remove the biscotti from the oven and paint the tops with the sugar paste and add three lines of jam.

Return to the oven and bake at 180°C or 350°F for 15-20 mins.
