Expert Tips

Cranberries contain antioxidants that help protect healthy body cells from oxygen damage by free radicals.

Biscotti is the Italian cookie that's baked twice—first as a loaf and then again as slices. Biscotti are traditionally dunked in coffee because of their crunchy texture.

I make these with white whole wheat flour and add 1/2 cup whole almonds along with 1/2 cup dried cranberries - I don't bother to cut them up - it isn't necessary. I've made these with Splenda and sugar and have to say there is a difference with the sugar being preferable. Love making biscotti and make many different varieties! My grandchildren say this is their cookie of choice. Good for them, too!
