Honey is a natural sweetener, while brown sugar adds a richer flavor.

In a mixing bowl, combine sugar and butter, then cream until light and fluffy for about 5 minutes.

Add the eggs one at a time, then add the vanilla and mix until blended.

In a separate mixing bowl, combine flour, baking powder, cinnamon, and coffee using a whisk.

Add the almond extract to the dry ingredients.

Slowly add the dry ingredients to the butter and sugar mixture along with chocolate chips and almonds, combining well but being careful not to overmix the dough.

Divide the dough in half and place them on a baking sheet.

Shape each half into a 12-inch log and flatten it to be one inch thick.

Make an egg wash with 1 egg and 3 tbsp of milk and brush it on top of the logs.

Bake at 325 degrees Fahrenheit for about 35 minutes.

Let the logs cool completely, then using a serrated knife, cut the logs into half-inch thick slices.

Place the cookies cut side up on the baking sheet and bake until they start to turn light brown for about 15-20 minutes at 325 degrees Fahrenheit.

Melt chocolate in the microwave and drizzle it over the biscotti.
