These biscotti were a little too dry for my taste. I think I would add a little more butter or oil next time. Otherwise, they were very flavorful and the pistachio and cranberry were a nice touch.

These biscotti were a hit! I made them for a holiday party and they disappeared quickly. They're the perfect combination of sweet and tart, and the pistachio and cranberry add a nice crunch. I'll definitely be making these again.
