Cranberry and Almond biscotti

This is a very nice snack recipe. Different from the almond bread, it uses the whole egg instead of egg white only. As it has cranberry in the, it gives a really good fruity flavour as well as nutty taste. I made this several times, but for some reason, didn’t take much photo. This is the only one taken by Mary in the Christmas high tea party.
