This Cranberry Orange Biscotti recipe is perfect for a family get-together or whenever you want a delicious orange and cranberry cookie this winter. Homemade biscotti is a favorite for gift giving or with your favorite coffee. The twice baked process is what makes these cookies crispy on the outside, yet softer on the inside.

Instructions

1

Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Combine flour, baking powder and salt in a mixing bowl and stir together. In the bowl of an electric mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, beat together sugar, butter, eggs, vanilla and orange zest until combined. With the mixer on low, slowly add dry ingredients and mix until just incorporated being careful not to over mix. Stir in white chocolate and dried cranberries.

Divide dough in half. Form one half into a 12″x3″ log on the prepared baking sheet. Repeat with remaining half of dough. Place logs parallel and spaced apart on baking sheet. Bake for 30 minutes, or until logs are golden brown. Remove from oven and cool for 25 minutes. Maintain oven temperature.

Carefully transfer cooled logs to a cutting board. Using a serrated knife, cut logs into 1/2 inch slices on the diagonal. Lie the slices on one cut side on a baking sheet. Return to the oven and bake for 12 minutes. Transfer to a wire rack and cool completely.

Tips & Tricks (5)

  • Zest Technique 🍊
    When zesting oranges, only remove the bright outer layer and avoid the white pith, which can add bitterness to your biscotti.
  • Crisp Cutting Hack ✂️
    Use a serrated knife when slicing biscotti after the first bake to ensure clean, even cuts without crumbling the log.
  • Moisture Control 💧
    Pat dried cranberries dry with a paper towel before adding to the dough to prevent excess moisture and maintain the perfect cookie texture.
  • White Chocolate Drizzle Pro 🍫
    Melt white chocolate chips using a double boiler or in 15-second microwave intervals, stirring between each to prevent burning.
  • Second Bake Perfection 🔥
    For optimal crispness, slice biscotti logs at a slight diagonal and return to oven at a lower temperature (around 325°F) for the second baking.
