We’ve been dumped on with another snowstorm; you’d never guess that it’s now March by looking out the window.
On the positive side, cold snowy days are perfect for hot drinks, and I love having biscotti to go with it – definitely a match made in heaven.
I used part whole wheat in this recipe. You can play around with the ratio’s if you want, or skip the whole wheat all together. Personally, I like to add up to half, because knowing that it has some whole grains just helps me justify eating biscotti for breakfast!

Ingredients
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1¼ whole wheat flour
- 1 tbsp. baking powder
- ½ tsp. salt
- 1½ cups sugar
- 10 tbsp. unsalted butter, melted
- 3 large eggs
- 1 tbsp. vanilla extract
- 2 tbsp. orange zest
- 1 cup white chocolate chips
- 1 cup dried cranberries
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350° F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Combine the flours, baking powder, and salt in a medium mixing bowl; stir together with a fork and set aside. In the bowl of an electric mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, beat together the sugar, melted butter, eggs, vanilla extract and orange zest until well combined. With the mixer on low speed, add in the dry ingredients and mix until just incorporated. Stir in the white chocolate chips and dried cranberries.
- Divide the dough in half. Working with one portion of dough, shape into a 12″ x 3″ log on the prepared baking sheet. Repeat with the remaining dough so that the logs are laying parallel and spaced apart on the baking sheet. Bake until the logs are golden brown, 25-30 minutes. Remove from the oven and let cool for 10 minutes, maintaining the oven temperature in the meantime.
- Carefully transfer the logs to a work surface and remove the parchment paper from the pan. Using a sharp knife, cut the logs into ½-inch slices on the diagonal. Lie the slices on one of their cut sides back on the baking sheet. Return to the oven and bake for 10 minutes more. Transfer to a wire rack to cool completely. If you want to get fancy, drizzle the slices with additional melted white chocolate. Store in an airtight container.
