Ingredients

½ cup unsalted sweet cream butter or light butter (softened)
½ cup granulated sugar (or sugar of choice. If I were making these for me, I'd use stevia)
½ cup light brown sugar (packed)
2 large cage/hormone free, vegetarian fed eggs
1 teaspoon Butter Extract (rum or vanilla extracts are fine too)
2 cups 100% whole wheat flour
½ cup unbleached all-purpose flour
1.5 teaspoons aluminum free baking powder
¼ teaspoon sea salt
¼ cup crushed toffee bits
1 cup toasted pecans (chopped)
¼ cup white chocolate chips
½ tablespoon extra virgin coconut oil, measured solid (plus more if needed)

Step 1
Preheat oven to 350 degrees (F). Add flours, baking powder, and salt to a small bowl, whisk together, and set aside.
Step 2
Beat butters and sugars until fluffy, add eggs (one at a time) plus the butter extract and beat until they are well combined and the sugars have slightly dissolved. Slowly add in the flours, a little at a time, until well mixed.
Step 3
Stir in toffee bits and about half of the pecans. Divide the dough into fourths and drop onto a parchment lined baking sheet. Shape each quarter into a log and smooth and pat until each log is about 7-8 inches long and ¾ of an inch thick.
Step 4
Bake for 20-25 minutes or until golden brown and a toothpick comes out clean. Cool completely, about 20 minutes. Using a serrated knife, diagonally cut the logs into ½ inch wide cookies. Place back on the baking sheet, cut side down, and return to the oven. Bake for another 10-15 minutes or until golden brown. Transfer to a wire rack and cool completely.
Step 5
When biscotti are cooled, add coconut oil to the white chocolate chips and melt in the microwave, stirring in 10-15 second intervals. Drizzle the cookies with the white chocolate and immediately sprinkle with the rest of the chopped pecans.
Step 6
Enjoy!
