How to Make Door County Cherry Biscotti

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. In a medium bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder, and salt.
  3. In a large bowl, cream together the softened butter and sugar until light and fluffy. Beat in eggs one at a time, then stir in the vanilla.
  4. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined. Do not overmix.
  5. Stir in the cherries and almonds.
  6. Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured surface and shape it into a log about 12 inches long and 2 inches wide.
  7. Place the log on the prepared baking sheet.
  8. Bake for 30-35 minutes, or until the biscotti is lightly golden brown.
  9. Remove from oven and let cool on the baking sheet for 15 minutes.
  10. Reduce oven temperature to 325°F (160°C).
  11. Using a serrated knife, slice the log diagonally into 1/2-inch thick slices.
  12. Arrange the slices, cut-side down, on the baking sheet.
  13. Bake for 10-12 minutes, or until golden brown and crisp.
  14. Let cool completely on a wire rack before serving.
