Ingredients

Scale
  • 3 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 cup granulated sugar
  • 3 large eggs
  • 1/2 cup unsalted butter, softened
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1/2 teaspoon almond extract
  • 1 cup candied cherries, roughly chopped
  • 1/2 cup almonds, toasted and chopped
  • Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). In a large bowl, cream together the butter and sugar until light and fluffy. Beat in the eggs one at a time, then stir in the vanilla extract and almond extract.
  • In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, and salt. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined. Be careful not to overmix.
  • Gently fold in the candied cherries and almonds.
  • Divide the dough in half and shape each half into a log about 12 inches long and 2 inches wide. Place the logs on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
  • Bake for 25 minutes, or until lightly golden brown and firm to the touch.
  • Remove from the oven and let cool on the baking sheet for 10 minutes. Then, transfer the logs to a cutting board and slice them into 1/2-inch thick slices using a serrated knife.
  • Place the biscotti slices back on the baking sheet, cut-side up. Bake for another 15 minutes, flipping halfway through, until golden brown and crunchy.
  • Remove from the oven and let cool completely on a wire rack.
  • Store in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 2 weeks or freeze for up to 3 months.
