Preparation
-
Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
In a large bowl, whisk together all dry ingredients (first 7 ingredients listed).
In a small bowl, whisk egg.
Add coffee, milk and vanilla.
Mix well.
Add egg mixture to dry ingredients.
If resulting mixture is too dry, add a little more coffee (1/4 tsp at a time).
Add chips, nuts and cranberries.
Turn dough onto well-floured board and with floured hands, form into 2 logs, each about 13-14 inches long and 3 1/2 inches wide.
Bake on greased and floured (or parchment-lined) baking sheet for 20-25 minutes.
Remove from oven (reduce oven temperature to 300 degrees at this point) and let cool for 8 minutes.
Using serrated knife, cut on a diagonal into 1/2 inch pieces.
Lay, cut side down, on baking sheet and bake another 6-8 minutes, one side only.
For a harder biscotti, bake 5 minutes EACH side.
