Cherry Mandelbrot Biscotti
Cherry Mandelbrot Biscotti delivers a crisp, twice-baked crunch with a tender interior, studded with sweet maraschino cherries and buttery pecans. A dusting of cinnamon sugar adds warm spice and a caramelized edge that pairs beautifully with coffee or tea. Serve as an afternoon snack, a holiday cookie platter favorite, or a sweet finish after dinner.

Beat the vegetable oil and sugar with an electric mixer in a large bowl. Add the room-temperature eggs one at a time, letting each egg blend into the sugar mixture before adding the next. In a small bowl, combine the flour, salt, and baking powder. Stir the flour mixture into the sugar mixture until just combined. Fold in the pecans and cherries, mixing only until evenly distributed.
