Yummy Treats!!

So my mom and I made these wonderful White Chocolate Cranberry Biscotti's, and they were insanely good. Now I'm not one that usually likes treats like this... I'm more of a giant fudge brownie sundae kinda girl... but this treat was YUM-MEEE! Here's a picture of them. The recipe was really easy to follow. If you need a yummy Christmas treat to make for a cookie exchange (which I did and made something else... wish I had found this recipe first) or just for your friends or family, then make this one!




Ingredients

  • 1/2 cup butter (no substitutes), softened
  • 1 cup sugar
  • 4 eggs
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 3 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 tablespoon baking powder
  • 3/4 cup dried cranberries
  • 3/4 cup white vanilla chips

Directions

  1. In a mixing bowl, cream butter and sugar. Add eggs, one at a time, beating well after each addition. Beat in vanilla. Combine flour and baking powder; gradually add to creamed mixture. Stir in cranberries and vanilla chips. Divide dough into three portions.
  2. On ungreased baking sheets, shape each portion into a 10-in. x 2-in. rectangle. Bake at 350 degrees F for 20-25 minutes or until lightly browned. Cool for 5 minutes.
  3. Transfer to a cutting board; cut diagonally with a serrated knife into 1-in. slices. Place cut side down on ungreased baking sheets. Bake for 15-20 minutes or until golden brown. Remove to wire racks to cool. Store in an airtight container.

The fact that you are expanding out of your chocolate comfort zone is just proof that you really are getting older!!!
