Instructions
- Step 1: Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). In a large bowl, whisk together 2 1/4 cups all-purpose flour, 3/4 cup granulated sugar, 1 1/2 tsp baking powder, and 1/4 tsp salt.
- Step 2: In a separate bowl, beat 3 large eggs with 1 tsp vanilla extract and 2 tbsp melted unsalted butter until combined. Pour the wet ingredients into the dry and mix until a dough forms.
- Step 3: Fold in 3/4 cup dried cranberries and 1/2 cup white chocolate chips evenly distributed throughout the dough.
- Step 4: Divide dough in half and shape each half into a 12-inch long, 2-inch wide log on a parchment-lined baking sheet. Bake for 25 minutes until golden and firm.
- Step 5: Remove from oven and let cool for 10 minutes. Using a serrated knife, slice each log diagonally into 1/2-inch thick biscotti.
- Step 6: Place biscotti cut side down on the baking sheet and bake for an additional 12-15 minutes until crisp. Cool completely before serving.
