Step-by-Step Instructions for Christmas Biscotti
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line two baking sheets with parchment paper.
- Chop slivered almonds and pistachios into smaller pieces, and combine them with the chopped candied fruit in a large mixing bowl.
- Beat the softened butter with granulated sugar until light and fluffy, about 3-4 minutes.
- Add your eggs one at a time, mixing well after each addition, then gently fold in the vanilla extract and corn syrup.
- Mix together the all-purpose flour, baking powder, and salt, then gradually add this to the wet ingredients.
- Carefully stir the fruit and nut mixture into the dough until evenly distributed.
- Divide the dough into thirds and shape each portion into logs about 2 inches wide.
- Bake the shaped logs for 25-30 minutes or until they are firm and lightly golden.
- Using a serrated knife, slice the warm logs diagonally into ¾-inch pieces, then re-bake for an additional 8 minutes.
- Once baked, transfer the cookies to a wire rack to cool completely.
