These are great with coffee and they aren't your traditional biscotti as they have cherries and pecans.

Ingredients
  • 1/2 Cup Dark brown sugar
  • 1/4 Cup Light margarine
  • 1 Large Egg
  • 4 tsp Pure vanilla extract
  • 2 Cups Enriched white flour
  • 1/3 Cup Unsweetened cocoa powder
  • 3/4 tsp Baking powder
  • 3/4 Cup Cherry spreadable fruit or jam
  • 1/2 Cup Dried chopped cherries
  • 1/2 Cup Ground pecans

Directions
  1. Line baking sheet with parchment paper or wax paper and set aside. Pre-heat oven to 325 degrees.
  2. In medium bowl, cream together brown sugar, margarine and vanilla. Mix in egg. In small bowl, combine flour, cocoa and baking powders. Stir in cherry spreadable fruit, dried cherries and ground pecans.
  3. Divide dough into two equal portions.
  4. On floured surface, with well-floured hands, shape into two logs, and square off ends.
  5. Transfer logs to baking sheet. Bake for 25-30 minutes, or until firm and lightly browned.
  6. Cool on wire rack for 5-7 minutes. Using sharp, serrated knife cut logs on diagonal into 1/2" slices.
  7. Return slices to baking sheet, leaving space around each slice. Continue to bake, 10-15 minutes, to desired crispness.
  8. (Biscotti become crisper as they cool, so err on the not-too-dry side. If needed, you can re-crisp later by warming in oven for few minutes.)
  9. Cool completely on wire rack before serving.
  10. Biscotti pick up moisture easily, so store only in airtight container.
