Ingredients
- 6 Tablespoons butter softened, unsalted
- ¾ cup granulated sugar
- 2 egg large
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- ½ cup dried cranberries Craisins
- ½ cup pistachios chopped, shelled
- 8 ounce white chocolate candy coating vanilla Candiquik, melted
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350 degree F. Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper, set aside.
- In a large mixing bowl, beat butter with sugar until combined, about 2 minutes. Add in eggs and vanilla. Slowly add flour and baking powder. Mix until thoroughly blended. Fold in cranberries and pistachios.
- On prepared baking sheet, shape dough into a 12 inch by 5 inch rectangle, that is about 1/2 inch thick. I use a little extra flour on my hands to keep the dough from sticking.
- Bake for 25 minutes. Remove from oven. Using a pizza cutter or serrated knife, slice biscotti into 12, one inch wide slices. Lay each slice on it's side, separating them on the baking sheet.
- Bake an additional 10 minutes. Flip biscotti to opposite side and bake another 10minutes. Remove and cool completely before frosting.
- To garnish, dip bottom of cooled biscotti into melted vanilla candy coating. Set on parchment paper (candy coating side DOWN) and allow to dry/set. Once set (about 15 minutes) store in an airtight container or ziploc bag for up to two weeks.
Notes
- Stored in an airtight container or ziploc bag, this biscotti should stay crunchy and fresh for up to 2 weeks.
- Biscotti don’t freeze well once baked because they lose their crispy crunchy texture once thawed. You CAN freeze the dough, though! Before baking, wrap the dough in plastic wrap and store in a freezer bag. Bake from frozen adding a few minutes of extra baking time. No need to thaw first!
- Cut the logs thinner in width but keep the same thickness so you don’t have to adjust the baking time. You can make the biscotti as wide or thin as you like.
