Beat well.
Mix together flour, baking powder and salt.
Add flour mixture to egg mixture. Blend well.
Add chocolate, walnuts, pecans, cashews and almonds.
Shape dough into 2 (14 by 1½ inch) slightly flattened logs.
Place logs about 2 inches apart on greased and floured cookie sheet.
Bake about 25 minutes or until lightly browned.
Remove from cookie sheets to cutting board.
Cool 5 minutes.
Using a serrated knife, cut each log into diagonal slices about ¾ inch thick.
Place slices upright on cookie sheet ½ inch apart and bake 10 minutes or until slightly dry.
Cool on racks. Serve plain with tea or coffee.
Or to make dipped biscotti if desired: Dip ½ of each or part of the biscotti into melted white chocolate.
Place on waxed paper lined tray.
