Divide dough in half. 6On lightly floured surface, shape each half into 12-inch (30 cm) long log. Place, 2 inches (5 cm) apart, on parchment paper–lined rimless baking sheet; press to flatten slightly. Stir egg white with 1 tsp water; brush generously over tops of logs. 7Bake in 325 F (160 C) oven just until light golden and firm to the touch, about 35 minutes. Let cool on pan on rack for 10 minutes. 8Transfer logs to cutting board. Using sharp chef s knife, cut diagonally into 1/2-inch (1 cm) thick slices. Stand slices upright, about 1/2 inch (1 cm) apart, on baking sheet. Bake in 300 F (150 C) oven until almost dry, about 35 minutes. Transfer to rack; let cool completely. 9In heatproof bowl over saucepan of hot (not boiling) water, melt chocolate, stirring until smooth; whisk in espresso powder until dissolved. Let cool slightly. Dip 1 end of each biscotti in chocolate mixture, letting excess drip off. 10Place on parchment paper–lined baking sheet; sprinkle remaining toffee bits over chocolate. Refrigerate until chocolate is set, about 20 minutes.
