Tips:

  • Use fresh cranberries. Fresh cranberries have a brighter flavor and a better texture than frozen or dried cranberries.
  • Chop the cranberries finely. This will help them distribute evenly throughout the cookie dough.
  • Toast the pistachios. Toasting the pistachios will enhance their flavor and make them more crunchy.
  • Use a good quality vanilla extract. A good quality vanilla extract will give the cookies a richer flavor.
  • Chill the dough before baking. Chilling the dough will help the cookies hold their shape and prevent them from spreading too much.
  • Bake the cookies until they are golden brown. The cookies should be baked until they are golden brown around the edges and just set in the center.
  • Let the cookies cool completely before slicing. This will help the cookies hold their shape and prevent them from crumbling.

Conclusion:

Cranberry pistachio biscotti cookies are a delicious and festive treat that are perfect for any occasion. They are easy to make and can be enjoyed by people of all ages. With their chewy texture, tart cranberries, and crunchy pistachios, these cookies are sure to be a hit.
