Biscotti means "twice baked" in Italian, and you'll follow suit for lots of extra crunch! Sift together flour, baking powder, and salt into a bowl. These cherry almond cookies are simply the best! They're puffy, soft, a bit crumbly, and dry.
Instructions to make Almond Cherry Biscotti:
- Preheat oven 350°
- Line a baking tray with parchment paper.
- Beat the butter with the sugars until smooth.
- Add the salt & baking powder as you mix
- Add the vanilla & almond extracts.
- Beat in the eggs until smooth and gradually add the ap & almond flour till completely incorporated. The dough will be very sticky.
- With a rubber spatula mix in the almonds & cherries.
- Transfer the dough to the baking sheet & divide it into 2 evenly. Form it to about 2"x10"x3/4" logs. Use a brush slightly dampened to smooth it along the top & sides. Square it off as best you can.
- Bake for 25 minutes
- I use the water at this point when I remove it from the oven to soften the crust to ease the slicing. If you choose to do this just brush it down lightly with water & wait 5 minutes
- Reduce the heat to 315°
- Cut to about 3/4" slices & set them onto baking sheet on a cut edge. Return them to the oven.
- Bake for another 25 minutes or until they turn a golden color. Pull them out and let cool on a rack.
- Make yourself a coffee / cappuccino & image sitting in a cafe in Venice dipping these little goodies. ;)
They remind me so much of biscotti but without the tedious shaping, baking, slicing, and baking again. With almond extract and dried cherries, these cookies have a wonderful flavor. And the white chocolate drizzle on top adds a little extra sweetness. This Cherry Almond Biscotti recipe is a variation of my go-to cranberry pistachio biscotti recipe - swapping in dried cherries for the dried cranberries and chopped almonds for the pistachios. Cherries and almonds are a wonderful flavor pairing in just about any dessert - and that holds true in these crunchy biscotti.
