I made this biscotti for a jewelry party and it went over really well. The lemon-cranberry combo is delicious!

This was my first time making biscotti - not that I haven't eaten my fair share. That being said, these have a very nice flavor. My dough needed a good amount more flour, as it was entirely too sticky to work with (on the order of another half cup). Also, for my preferences, the cranberries should either be upped or eliminated. Some of my biscotti had one or two cranberries, many had none. Very excited about my first batch of biscotti. Thank you!

Delicious, Biscotti's, Love the lemon flavor, with the hint of cardamon. Next time I am going to use more cranberries. The icing adds a nice touch to the biscotti. I served some to Our DS & DDIL after dinner this eve they really enjoyed them. Rita the recipe is a keeper, thank you.

Have made several previous attempts at making biscotti with no success until now. These were just delectable with a perfect crisp texture and just the right level of sweetness. I ran out of white flour and had to use 3/4 cup of whole whet. While that left mine a tiny bit more golden the taste was great. The cardamom gives these a lovely subtle flavor that complements the lemon and cranberry. I used 5 drops of yellow food coloring and next time might cut back to 3 drops so that the icing would better match the paleness of the cookie. My only regret is not doubling the batch, one to keep the other to take to the office as planned. Thanks Rita.
