Cranberry Orange Biscotti Recipe + Family Memories

As kids when we went to visit my Nona and Papa we were always greeted at the door with a kiss and the smell of sauteing onions, and garlic. Ever so faintly you would also smellfresh brewed coffee.

Their idea of a sweet treat was a biscotti. It came in one flavor only. Anise. The hard as a brick biscotti was dunked several times in the thick as mud coffee before taking a bite. It’s a good thing biscotti means “twice baked” otherwise there is no way this Italian cookie would stand a chance against being dunked in that strong coffee.

Since my childhood, I have learned to bake my own biscotti which is also twice baked. My biscotti is sweet, hard and soft at the same time, and is filled with fruits, nuts, and sometimes chocolate!
