How to Make Chocolate Cherry Biscotti

Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
Lightly spoon flour into dry measuring cups, leveling with a knife. Combine flour and salt in a bowl; whisk well.
In a large bowl, beat sugar and eggs with an electric mixer at high speed until thick and pale (about 3-5 minutes).
Add oil and vanilla extract; beat until well blended.
Gradually add the flour mixture, beating at low speed just until blended.
Stir in dried cherries and chocolate chips.
Divide dough in half.
Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Turn each dough half onto the prepared baking sheet.
Shape each portion into a 10-inch long roll, about 1-inch thick.
Bake for 25 minutes, or until lightly browned.
Remove from oven and let cool on baking sheet for 10 minutes.
Reduce oven temperature to 325°F (165°C).
Using a serrated knife, cut each roll diagonally into 20 slices.
Place slices, cut sides down, on the baking sheet.
Bake for 10 minutes. Turn cookies over and bake for an additional 10 minutes, or until golden brown and crisp.
Remove from baking sheet and let cool completely on a wire rack before serving.
