Jeweled Biscotti Recipe - THIS is the perfect holiday (or everyday!) cookie @natashaskitchen

This post may contain affiliate links. Read my disclosure policy.

These jeweled biscotti are a wonderful treat. You will love that they aren’t overly sweet; a low-guilt cookie! This recipe makes enough to share with friends, family and neighbors; making it the perfect Holiday cookie!

One of the gals in church, Tanya of Chaff & Grain Blog, shared this recipe with me. She is well known on this blog for her Russian tea cakes, Parsley Rice (don’t judge my terrible pictures – it’s actually very tasty!), and Raspberry Pretzel jello – and these all happen to be major reader favorites by the way!

Tanya, thank you so much for sharing this recipe with me. My entire family enjoyed them and my parents were particularly smitten ?.
Jeweled Biscotti Recipe - THIS is the perfect holiday (or everyday!) cookie @natashaskitchen

Ingredients for the Best Biscotti:

1 cup shelled almonds
1 cup shelled pistachios
1/3 cup candied pineapple, diced
1/3 cup dried apricots, diced
1/3 cup candied cherries (I used dried craisins)
1/3 cup dried papaya
1 stick (8 Tbsp) unsalted butter, softened
1 cup granulated sugar
2 tsp vanilla extract
3 large eggs, room temp
3 1/4 cups all purpose flour *measured correctly
2 1/4 tsp baking powder
1/4 tsp salt

Jeweled Biscotti Recipe - THIS is the perfect holiday (or everyday!) cookie @natashaskitchen

How to Make Biscotti:

Preheat Oven to 350˚F.

1. Place almonds and pistachios on an un-greased baking sheet and bake at 350˚F for 8-10 min. Remove from oven to cool to room temp then coarsely chop and transfer to a medium bowl.

2. Chop your dried/candied fruit into pieces about the size of raisins. Add dried fruit to the bowl with nuts and stir to combine. This would make one fine trail mix; I tell ya what!

3. In the bowl of your electric stand mixer with the whisk attachment, beat together: 1 stick butter, 1 cup sugar, and 2 tsp vanilla on high speed (3 min). Add 3 eggs and beat until well combined (1 min).

4. In a medium bowl, whisk together 3 1/4 cups flour, 2 1/4 tsp baking powder, and 1/4 tsp salt. Add to the butter mixture and mix (with the paddle attachment) until combined. Stir in nuts and fruit with a spatula, mixing until dispersed.

5. Divide the dough into three equal pieces and shape each piece into a 12″long by 2″ wide by 3/4″ thick. You can make them longer and wider but be sure you stay under 1″ in thickness for even baking. Arrange on a large greased baking sheet, at least 1″ apart. Bake at 350˚F for 25-28 min or until starting to turn golden (they shouldn’t be fully cooked at this point).

6. Remove from oven and when cool enough to handle, use a serrated knife to carefully slice each log into individual biscotti (mine were about 1″ wide). Add a little more grease to the same baking pan(s), arrange cookies evenly over the top and bake 15-18 min or until golden and firm. Biscotti cookies will harden more as they cool.

    Hello after you bake the logs, it says to cut your cookies an inch wide that would make them super fat. I think it’s a misprint and it’s a half an inch wide is that correct? I’ve made biscotti’s before not using this recipe.

    This recipe is wonderful! I am giving a bunch of the cookies away for Christmas this year, so I will have to make another batch to satisfy my own craving. I would like to have bigger pieces, though, more like standard-sized biscotti. Do you have any advice on cooking times if I make two, larger loaves?

      Hi Vicki! I’m so glad you love my recipe. I have not tested this in large size to advise. You should be able to keep the same temperature but keep an eye on it so it doesn’t burn, it will take longer to bake. Let us know how it turns out if you experiment.

    Natasha; I’ve made these biscotti many times; I add a lot less fruit/nuts then the recipe calls for, and don’t have the problem of crumbling that others report. I think that is the key. Thanks for all your delicious recipes!

    I have tried baking this twice and both times the dough was very sticky and sticking to the bowl and ladel. I’ve measured all ingredients as you mentioned. Any idea why?

      November 24, 2020

      Hi Binu, it may be a difference in the type of flour used or in how the flour was measured. It sounds like it needs a little more flour if it is very sticky.

      Hi Anne, make sure not to overbake which will make these too dry and cause crumbling. Also, check out our post on measuring ingredients. Too much flour can also cause these to be dry.

        thanks for your reply Natasha but measuring the ingredients was not the problem. the cracking began before the 20 minute mark of baking and the inside of the cookie was still soft.

    I just tried the Biscotti recipe and was really disapointed that i wasted all the delicous fruits and nuts mixture i put in it.
    Everything looked good and was smelling delicious. When I took out of the oven to slice, it just crumbled on the cutting board and did not hold well at all. Im not sure if the recipe is faulty or were I went wrong. I believe I measured everything correectly including scooping the flour with a spoon into the cup to measure 3 1/4 cups.

      Hi Row, I’m sorry to hear that. It sounds like something was off in the proportions if they were crumbling. Consider if anything else was changed in the amounts of ingredients or any substitutions that may have been used (different kind of flour, etc?).

      Hi Doreen, The only thing I can think of is the dry ingredients and how they were measured and possibly too much added. When you measure your flour, do you scoop it into a measuring cup with a spoon and scrape off the top? This usually provides the most precise measurement for baking. I hope that makes sense

    Made these today. Sooooo good, with all the nuts and dried fruit. Thinking of making these for small Christmas treats. The only problem that mine turned a little crumbly and cracked in a few places. What could be the problem? Should I try putting a little less flour?

      These would be perfect Christmas cookies! It does sounds like maybe too much flour. When you measure your flour, do you scoop it into a measuring cup with a spoon and scrape off the top? This usually provides the most precise measurement for baking. I’ve weighed flour both ways and it is definitely heavier if you just scoop the measuring cup directly into your flour basin because it gets compressed. I hope that makes sense.

    I love to bake and have done so for over 40 years. However, I have recently developed a neurological condition that makes mixing doughs and batters almost impossible . I hope a Kitchen aide mixer would allow me to resume baking once again.

    I do not believe as most people do in this day and age that my life should be an open book. I do not subscribe to any social media outlet except having an e-mail address. Therefore, I am penalized and can not enter certain sweepstakes or giveaways or have as many enteries as most people do just because they are more socially oriented.I think people that just love to cook showing the love for their family through food and enhance their family’s life through food are being short changed. Just because I want to keep my life simple, does not mean that i am a simple person. Simply Me.

    Thank you Natasha.I’ll try to make them this afternoon. Since I will have to use Canadian flour I will probably need to adjust the amount, however I feel like for this recipe I don’t have to worry to much when it comes to flour.

    Re: Biscotti
    I use parchment paper to bake and also on the second bake
    I do not grease my cookie sheet at all, and they brown very nicely on the bottom.
    I love parchment paper.
    I will be trying this biscotti very soon.
