They are not only a treat for the taste buds but also an aesthetic addition to any festive dessert spread.

Cooking Instructions

1. Preheat the Oven: Start by preheating your oven to 350°F (175°C). Prepare a baking sheet by lining it with parchment paper to guarantee the biscotti don’t stick.
2. Combine Dry Ingredients: In a medium-sized bowl, mix the all-purpose flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt together until they are well combined.

4. Mix Ingredients Together: Pour the wet mixture into the dry ingredients, stirring gently with a wooden spoon or spatula until just combined. Fold in the dried cranberries and chopped walnuts, making sure they are evenly distributed throughout the dough.
5. Shape the Biscotti Dough: Lightly flour a clean surface and transfer the dough onto it.

Place these logs on the prepared baking sheet, guaranteeing they have enough space between them.
6. First Bake: Bake the logs in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes or until they are lightly golden and firm to the touch. Remove them from the oven and allow to cool for about 10-15 minutes on the baking sheet.
