1 tablespoon milk PLUS"PLUS" means this ingredient in addition to the one on the next line, often with divided uses
1 teaspoon milk
1 large egg
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
3/4 cup walnuts
1 1/3 cup semisweet chocolate chips
3/4 cup dried cranberries or cherries

directions

In a large mixing bowl, combine all dry ingredients and blend well.

In a small bowl, whisk together all liquids, add to dry ingredients with mixer. You may want to add a few drops of coffee to get mixture gooey. Add chocolate chips, walnuts and cranberries.

Turn dough out onto a well-floured board and form into 1/2 x 3-1/2 inch flat logs.

Cook on greased/floured cookie sheet at 350 degrees for 20 - 25 minutes. Cook until cake-like. Cool.

Cut logs into 1/2-inch pieces. Lay (cut-side down) flat on cookie sheet and bake another 6-8 minutes at 300 degrees F on one side only. (For a harder Biscotti, cook both sides of cut pieces for 6- 8 minutes each side.)

Cool and serve.
