Crisp biscotti with dried cranberries, pistachios, and white chocolate—ideal for sharing or enjoying with coffee.

# What You Need:

→ Dry Ingredients

01 - 2 cups all-purpose flour
02 - 1 teaspoon baking powder
03 - 1/4 teaspoon salt

→ Wet Ingredients

04 - 2/3 cup granulated sugar
05 - 1/2 cup unsalted butter, melted and slightly cooled
06 - 2 large eggs
07 - 2 teaspoons pure vanilla extract

→ Add-ins

08 - 3/4 cup shelled pistachios, roughly chopped
09 - 3/4 cup dried cranberries
10 - 3/4 cup white chocolate chips or chopped white chocolate, divided

# Steps:

01 - Preheat oven to 350°F. Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper.
02 - In a medium bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder, and salt until evenly blended.
03 - In a large bowl, whisk granulated sugar, melted butter, eggs, and vanilla extract until smooth and homogenous.
04 - Add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture and stir gently until just combined, avoiding overmixing to maintain dough texture.
05 - Gently fold in pistachios, dried cranberries, and half of the white chocolate chips until evenly distributed.
06 - Divide dough in half. On the prepared baking sheet, shape each portion into a log approximately 12 inches long and 2.5 inches wide, flattening the tops slightly.
07 - Bake the logs for 25 to 28 minutes, until golden brown and firm to the touch. Remove from oven and allow to cool for 10 minutes.
08 - Using a serrated knife, slice each log diagonally into pieces about 3/4 inch thick.
09 - Arrange the slices cut-side down on the baking sheet. Bake for 8 to 10 minutes, then flip and bake for an additional 6 to 8 minutes until crisp and lightly golden.
10 - Transfer biscotti slices to a wire rack to cool completely. Melt the remaining white chocolate and drizzle over the cooled biscotti. Allow chocolate to set before serving.
