Almond Chocolate Biscotti with Glaze

3 cups all-purpose flour
1/2 cup NESTLÉ® TOLL HOUSE® Baking Cocoa
2 teaspoons baking powder
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 cup granulated sugar
2/3 cup butter OR margarine, softened
3/4 cup liquid egg substitute, OR 3 large eggs
1 teaspoon almond extract
1/2 cup coarsely chopped blanched almonds, toasted
1 cup powdered sugar
6 teaspoons water

1. Preheat oven to 350°F. Lightly grease a baking sheet.
2. In a medium bowl combine together flour, cocoa, baking powder and salt. Set aside.
3. In a large bowl with electric mixer at medium speed, beat sugar and butter for 2 minutes or until creamy. Add egg substitute and almond extract; beat well. Reduce speed to low, gradually add flour mixture, beating just until blended; stir in almonds.
4. Form dough into two 12 x 2 1/2-inch logs on the prepared baking sheet. Bake for 25 to 30 minutes or until toothpick inserted in centers comes out clean. Remove from sheet; cool on wire racks 15 minutes. (Leave oven on.)

6. In small bowl combine powdered sugar and water until smooth. Remove biscotti to a wire rack, drizzle tops with glaze and cool completely.
