Chocolate Cranberry Biscotti

I am not a fan of biscotti. If you are not sure what it is, well you know those long-ish shaped hard cookies they sell in Starbucks, yup, thats biscotti. Its an Italian double baked cookie . Traditionally it is Almond flavored. Nowadays there are all sort of variations. I choose to make this version with chocolate and cranberry because i have never baked with berries and thought this a good start.

I wanted to bake this simply because i saw a few cyber bakers making them and thought i could do it.

Thought, ladies and gents, being the operative word. Boy was i in for one hell of a mess... but like life, sometimes you just gotta get in there and get dirty once in a while. The batter was too watery, i could not roll it as required. I didn't know if i should have added more flour or chilled it. And I didn't have a serrated knife so cutting became a chore.

If you decide you wanna give it a try, please do because it tastes absolutely choco-licious. You can get the recipe here

Happy baking
xoxo
