White Chocolate Cranberry Biscotti in a Jar

I am a lover of coffee not only that but also hot chocolate all of which pair perfectly with wonderful homemade biscotti!  The first time I made biscotti I used this recipe for Chocolate Chip Biscotti on Tasty Kitchen.  Ever since that day of discovering homemade biscotti, I have been adapting that recipe to make some of my favorite versions.  So far my all time favorite is White Chocolate Cranberry!

I can eat these even without the hot coffee or hot chocolate, they are that good!  My husband likes to inform me that they are hard as a rock, of course biscotti is supposed to be hard and soften in your coffee.  For all those wondering too, how do I make this gluten free?  All you need to do is swap out the flour for gluten free all purpose flour.  I made two batches of these one with regular flour and one with gluten free flour, there was absolutely no difference in taste or texture!  That was according to my husband the taste tester of the one with the regular flour.

Not only are these fabulous and tasty, they also make the perfect gift!  I made these recently for my best friend who is an avid coffee lover, we even worked at a coffee shop together in high school for years.  Once I finished making them I put them in a large mason jar and tied a gift card to Starbucks around it!  These would make great teacher gifts, birthday gifts, or really any occasion!

Enjoy this morning treat with your coffee!

Ingredients

  

1x2x3x

• 1 Cup Granulated Sugar
• 1 3/4 Cup All-Purpose Flour or Gluten-Free All-Purpose Flour

• 1/2 Tsp Salt
• 4 Tbsp Butter Softened
• 1 Tsp Vanilla Extract
• 2 Large Eggs Room Temperature
