Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
- Line a heavy large baking sheet with parchment paper. Whisk the flour and baking powder in a medium bowl to blend. Using an electric mixer, beat the sugar, butter, lemon zest, and salt in a large bowl to blend. Beat in the eggs 1 at a time. Add the flour mixture and beat just until blended. Stir in the pistachios and cranberries.
- Form the dough into a 13-inch long, 3-inch wide log on the prepared baking sheet. Bake until light golden, about 40 minutes. Cool for 30 minutes.
- Place the log on the cutting board. Using a sharp serrated knife, cut the log on a diagonal into 1/2 to 3/4-inch-thick slices. Arrange the biscotti, cut side down, on the baking sheet. Bake the biscotti until they are pale golden, about 15 minutes. Transfer the biscotti to a rack and cool completely.
- Stir the chocolate in a bowl set over a saucepan of simmering water until the chocolate melts. Dip half of the biscotti into the melted chocolate. Gently shake off the excess chocolate. Place the biscotti on the baking sheet for the chocolate to set. Sprinkle with the sugar crystals. Refrigerate until the chocolate is firm, about 35 minutes.
- The biscotti can be made ahead. Store them in an airtight container up to 4 days, or wrap them in foil and freeze in resealable plastic bags up to 3 weeks.

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees. In the bowl of an electric mixer, whisk together flour, granulated sugar, baking powder, anise seeds, salt, and nuts. Transfer to mixer fitted with the paddle attachment. Add eggs; beat until a stiff dough comes together, about 3 minutes.
- Divide dough in half. Form each half into a 12-inch log. (Dough may be sticky; dampen your hands for easier handling.) Transfer to a parchment-lined baking sheet and flatten so each log is 13 inches long, 2 1/4 inches wide, and 3/4 inch thick.
- Brush logs with beaten egg and sprinkle with sanding sugar. Bake until firm and very pale golden, about 35 minutes. Let cool on pans on a wire rack, 40 minutes. Meanwhile, reduce oven temperature to 300 degrees.
- Using a serrated knife with a sawing motion, cut logs into slices slightly thicker than 1/4 inch. Arrange, cut-side up, on parchment-lined baking sheets. Bake until dry to touch, about 30 minutes. Let cool completely on pans on racks, 30 minutes. Store in an airtight container up to 1 month.

AUTHENTIC CHOCOLATE BISCOTTI
This is a variation on the almond biscotti recipe I posted. I prefer the almond biscotti but most of my friends prefer this recipe. I have tried hazelnuts, almonds, and semi-sweet chocolate chips in place of the white chocolate chips. All of them were great. I don't even have a favourite!

Steps:
- Adjust rack to center position and heat the oven to 350 degree. Line a cookie sheet with wax or parchment paper.
- Place the flour, sugar, baking powder, salt and white chocolate chips in a large bowl and stir to combine.
- In a small bowl combine the eggs, butter and vanilla and whisk to fully combine. Make a well in the center of the dry ingredients and pour in the egg mixture. Using a rubber spatula, mix to combine until a rough dough forms. Don't be concerned if the dough is crumbly- this is typical of biscotti dough. It will come together in the next step.
- Dump the dough onto a work surface and knead a couple of times until the dough comes together, adding extra flour sparingly and only if necessary. Start to form the dough into a big, fat cigar and cut it in half. Form each half into a cigar about 1 inch thick, 2 inches wide and about 12 inches long. Place them onto the cookie sheet and lightly press with fingers to slightly flat cigars.
- Bake for 25 minutes reversing the pan halfway through. The bars will be firm to the touch and just slightly browned. Remove from the oven and lower the temperature to 300 degrees. Let the cookies cool on the cookie sheet for 15 minutes.
- Remove cookies to a cutting board using two spatulas. Using a serrated knife, slice the bars on an angle about 1/2 inch thick to form the biscotti. Lay them back on the cookie sheet with either cut side down and place back in oven for 12 minutes. Turn each cookie to expose the other cut side and place in oven for another 12 minutes. Let cool on a rack to room temperature. Place cookies in an airtight container.

Steps:
- Heat oven to 350°F Grind the anise seed in a coffee grinder reserved for spices, or with a mortar and pestle. By hand or with a mixer lightly beat eggs, then mix in the oil, sugar and anise. Stir in the flour, baking powder, salt and almonds and mix to combine. The dough will be smooth but slightly sticky to the touch.
- Divide the dough into six pieces, lightly flour and roll each into a log 2" in diameter. Place on two greased or parchment lined baking sheets and bake until they just begin to brown and the center is cooked, about 25 minutes.
- Remove from the oven, immediately slice 1/2" thick diagonally and place back on baking sheet. Bake 10 minutes, flip and bake another 10 minutes or until lightly browned and crisp.
- If you wish them to be very hard for dunking in coffee turn the oven to 250F when the biscotti finish browning and let dry to your taste.
