I'm not a huge fan of pistachios, but I loved these biscotti. The cranberries and white chocolate chips really balance out the flavor of the pistachios.

These biscotti are a great way to use up leftover cranberries. I always have a bag of cranberries in my freezer, so I'm always looking for new ways to use them.

I found this recipe to be a bit too complicated. There are a lot of steps involved, and it took me longer than I expected to make them.

These biscotti were a little too dry for my taste. I think I would add a little more butter or oil next time.
