White Chocolate Cranberry Biscotti
Dan: 
Serves: About 30 mini biscotti
 
Ingredients
  • ⅔ cup granulated sugar (134 grams)
  • 2 large eggs at room temperature
  • 1 tablespoon pure vanilla extract
  • ½ teaspoon lemon extract
  • 1¾ cups plus 1 Tablespoon all purpose flour (240 grams)
  • ¼ teaspoon salt
  • 1¼ teaspoons baking powder
  • ⅔ cup dried cranberries
  • ⅓ cup white chocolate chips
  • white chocolate for melting and finishing
Instructions
  1. Preheat your oven to 350*F and line a cookie sheet with parchment paper
  2. Whisk together the flour, salt and baking powder and set aside
  3. In the bowl of your stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, combine the sugar and eggs
  4. Beat at medium speed for 3-5 minutes until the mixture thickens and lightens in color. The mixture should be thick and fall from the paddle in a ribbon-like fashion
  5. Add in the dry ingredients and mix on low to combine
  6. Add the cranberries and white chocolate chips and blend on low to combine
  7. Take half of the dough, and using wet hands, begin to shape the dough into a log that is about 8" long
  8. Place the log on the parchment lined sheet and flatten it until it is about 1" thick. Straighten the sides of the log to achieve a more even shape
  9. Repeat with the second half of the dough
  10. Bake the biscotti for 25-30 minutes or until they feel firm to the touch
  11. Allow the biscotti to cool for about 20-30 minutes until they are comfortable to handle
  12. Carefully peel off the parchment and use a serrated knife to cut the biscotti into slices that are about ¾" thick
  13. Place the biscotti back on the tray, leaving some room in between them
  14. Return the biscotti to the oven and bake at 300*F for 15-20. Adjust the baking time to make your biscotti softer or crunchier
  15. Allow to cool then dip the ends in melted white chocolate if desired
