I'm not a big fan of cranberries, but I really enjoyed these biscotti. The walnuts add a nice crunch and the cranberries are not too tart.

These biscotti are a great way to use up leftover cranberries. I love the festive red color they add.

I found that the biscotti were a little dry. I would add a little more butter or oil next time.

These biscotti are a little too sweet for my taste. I would reduce the amount of sugar next time.

These biscotti are a little more work than some other recipes, but they're definitely worth it. The extra effort pays off in the end.

These biscotti are a great make-ahead snack or dessert. I like to make a batch on the weekend and then enjoy them throughout the week.

I've made these biscotti several times and they always turn out perfect. They're crispy on the outside and chewy on the inside, with just the right amount of sweetness.
