This an excellent recipe. I was a first time biscotti maker, and I had researched many recipes and techniques. My final choice was between this recipe and an America's Test Kitchen recipe; I went with this one for my first batch because it looked so easy (no egg separating) and relatively healthy; I made with almonds as I could not find shelled pistachios. The first batch my dough was extremely runny and sticky, and spread a lot in the oven. They cracked a bit with slicing after cooling 10 minutes but tasted fantastic, great texture. After more research the next night, I made some adjustments, the most important of which was sifting then measuring the flour. I also upped cranberries to a cup and cut almonds back to a cup. This batch was much less runny and sticky, easy to mold into gorgeous loaves. I cooled for 15-20 minutes and this batch turned out picture perfect (no breaks) and just as tasty. Fantastic simple recipe. I'll be making my 3rd batch (for christmas gifts) tonight. Can't wait to tinker with other fruits and flavorings.
