Recipe - Lean Chocolate Biscotti

One fourth cup Butter Or Margarine; at room
temp
One half cup Sugar
4 lg Egg Whites
2 cup AllPurpose Flour
1/3 cup Unsweetened Cocoa Powder
2 teaspoon Baking Powder
1/3 cup Powdered Sugar
2 teaspoon Milk; approx

With a mixer on high speed, beat butter and granulates sugar until fluffy.
Add egg whites and beat until wellblended. Stir in flour, cocoa, and
baking powder; mix until well blended.

On a buttered 12 x 15" baking sheet, shape dough down the length of the pan
into a flat log 2 1/2" wide and 5/8" thick.

Bake in a 350 deg F oven until crusty and firm to touch, about 20 min. Let
cool about 5 min.

On pan, cut log diagonally into 1/2" thick slices. Lay slices cut side
down (they can touch). Return to oven and bake until cookies feel firm and
dry, 15 20 min. Transfer to racks; let cool.

Smoothly mix powdered sugar and enough milk to make pourable icing. Using
a spoon, drizzle icing decoratively over biscotti. Let stand until icing
is dry, about 15 min. Serve, or store airtight up to 1 week.
