Twelve Cookies of Christmas #8: Cranberry Pistachio Biscotti
These biscotti have shown up in my past holiday baking because of how festive they look—jewelled with the bright greens of pistachios and reds of dried cranberries.

Unlike some other biscotti recipes, which don’t contain some kind of fat content like oil or butter, these ones have olive oil, which adds a lovely fruity touch to the cookies and helps make them tender, instead of the super dry and super rock-hard versions that practically break your teeth when you bite into them.
