Time 55m

Yield 1 1/2 dozen, 18 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 11

3/4 cup all-purpose flour
1/4 cup almonds, finely ground
3 tablespoons Dutch-processed cocoa powder
3/4 teaspoon baking powder
1/4 teaspoon salt
1 large egg
1/3 cup sugar
2 teaspoons pure vanilla extract
1/2 teaspoon almond extract
1/3 cup dried cranberries
chocolate, Melted for drizzling

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees and arrange a rack in the center of the oven. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  • Whisk together flour, ground almonds, cocoa powder, baking powder and salt in a medium bowl.
  • Beat egg and sugar with a handheld or standing mixer on medium-high speed until pale and thick, about 5 minutes. Beat in vanilla and almond extracts. Reduce speed to low, and gradually add flour mixture. Beat until no traces of flour remain. Stir in cranberries. The dough will be very wet and sticky.
  • Scrape the dough onto the prepared baking sheet, forming a thick line in the center. Wet your hands and pat dough into a 9-x-3-inch rectangle. Bake until puffed and dry to the touch, about 25 minutes. Cool on pan for 15 minutes; keep oven on. Peel off parchment and carefully transfer rectangle to a cutting board. Cut crosswise into 1/3-inch-thick slices.
  • Lay slices flat on unlined baking sheet, and bake until dry, about 10 minutes. Flip slices and bake for 10 minutes more. Let cool completely. Cookies will crisp as they cool.
  • Drizzle with melted chocolate if desired.

I've tried many biscotti recipes, and this one is by far the best. The biscotti are crispy, chewy, and have the perfect amount of sweetness. I highly recommend this recipe.

These biscotti are way too sweet for my taste. I ended up throwing them out.

I found the recipe to be a bit confusing. I'm not sure if I did something wrong, but my biscotti didn't turn out as expected.

I was a little disappointed with these biscotti. They were too dry and crumbly for my taste.

I had some trouble getting the biscotti to slice evenly, but other than that, they turned out great. I'll definitely be making them again.

I'm not a big fan of biscotti, but these ones were really good. They're not too hard and they have a great flavor.
