1 tsp baking powder
1/4 tsp salt
1/2 cup unsalted butter (softened)
3 large eggs (room temperature)
1 cup dried cranberries
1 cup chopped roasted unsalted pistachios
2 tsp vanilla extract

Instructions

Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
In a bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder, and salt.
In a large mixing bowl, cream softened butter and sugar until light and fluffy.
Add eggs one at a time, mixing well after each addition, then stir in vanilla extract.
Gradually mix in the dry ingredients until just combined; fold in cranberries and pistachios.
Shape the dough into two logs about 12 inches long on a floured surface. Place on the baking sheet and bake for 25 minutes until golden brown.
Cool slightly, slice diagonally into biscotti pieces, and return to the oven for an additional 10 minutes on each side until crisp.
