This is the favorite biscotti recipe of my daughter and I. The dough is not terribly sticky so it is fairly easy to work with. I add about 1/4tsp more of cinnamon than the recipe calls for because that is our personal taste. We were making them for holiday baskets so we also melted some cinnamon chips and drizzled them over the top which gave them a beautiful look and kicked up the cinnamon quotient a notch and they were great!!

Cranberry Pistachio Biscotti

Reviewed: Dec. 23, 2012

My daughter and I made several different biscotti recipes for Christmas this year & this was one of my favorites. The dough is really sticky so you definitely need to keep your hands wet while working with it. I would recommend changing the oil from olive oil to canola or vegetable oil. The olive oil leaves a definite aftertaste that I didn't care for. I also changed the measurements of cranberries to one cup and pistachios to one cup.We also dipped ours in semi-sweet chocolate which gave them a fancier appearance for our holiday baskets but as far as flavor goes I preferred mine without the chocolate.
