Ingredients:
½ cup sugar
½ cup brown sugar
¼ cup sweet butter
2 teaspoon grated orange zest
3 eggs
3 cups all-purpose sifted flour
3 teaspoon baking powder
¾ cup dried cranberries
¼ cup almonds or walnuts
Glaze:
1 cup dark chocolate chips
1 teaspoon orange zest
Preheat oven 350 degrees:
Combine sugar, brown sugar and butter and mix with an electric mixer.
Add 2 teaspoon orange zest and eggs and beat well.
Stir in flour and baking powder.
In food processor combine cranberries and nuts and chop and add to mixture.
Shape dough into 3 rolls about 6 inches long. Place the rolls about 3 inches apart on cookie sheet: flatten each to form ¾ inch thick rectangle.
Bake 20-25 minutes or until light golden brown and centers are firm to the touch.
Let cool about 5 minutes.
With serrated knife, cut each rectangle to ½ inch slices: place, cut side up, on cookie sheet.
Bake 6 to 8 minutes or until top surface is slightly dry. Turn cookies over: bake 6 to 8 minutes longer.
Melt chocolate in saucepan on low heat, stirring until smooth. Remove from heat: dip bottom side of biscotti in chocolate.
Store the biscotti in tightly covered container.
Enjoy!
