SNICKERS BISCOTTI AND MILITARY CARE PACKAGE Recipes

Posted on

The production process is extremely easy, you simply need to follow the methods that we have created on this web page. The following are the phases of exactly how to cook SNICKERS BISCOTTI AND MILITARY CARE PACKAGE.

The Monday Box has finally jumped in with both feet! When I started this care package recipe blog almost 2 years ago, my idea of care packages mostly included sending home- baked love to my own stress ridden, sleep deprived college student. Then I learned about the world of military care packages. Talk about stress ridden and sleep deprived!  My blogging friend, Gina, woke me up and my military mom friend, Suzie, filled me in. I am still learning the details, but I try, in addition to recipes for short distance mailing, to include recipes that “should” successfully travel the long distances and time spans required to get to deployed military.  Previously, my estimates of how long an item would stay fresh were based on home testing only. I now have a “volunteer taste tester” in Afghanistan.

Ingredients
Biscotti Ingredients:

  • 2 cups all-purpose flour
  • ½ cup unsweetened Dutch-process cocoa powder
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • Note: If you use natural cocoa powder instead of Dutch-process use ½ teaspoon of baking soda instead of the baking powder.
  • 2 teaspoons baking powder
  • 4 ounces semi-sweet chocolate chopped or broken into small pieces
  • 8 tablespoons 1 stick butter, room temperature
  • 1 cup granulated sugar
  • 2 large eggs
  • 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
  • ½ cup semi-sweet chocolate chips
  • ½ cup caramel bits or caramel cubes chopped in 4-6 pieces each
  • ½ cup chopped peanuts salted or unsalted according to taste

Icing and Drizzle Ingredients:

  • 2 cups confectioners sugar
  • 1 cup about 24 unwrapped caramel cubes
  • 2 tablespoons milk
  • 4 ounces semi-sweet chocolate broken into small chunks
  • ½ cup chopped peanuts

Directions

  • Pre-heat oven to 300 degrees F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  • In the bowl of a food processor, combine the flour, cocoa, salt, baking powder, and chopped chocolate. Pulse until the chocolate is ground into the flour mixture. (Running the processor continually rather than pulsing will create too much heat and will melt the chocolate instead of finely grinding it.)
  • In the bowl of an electric mixer, cream together the butter and sugar.
