Organic frozen raspberries bring such a beautiful color and sweetness to these light and crispy Raspberry Chocolate Chip Biscotti.
Okay, let’s take a quick break from pumpkin bread, apple pies, and caramel cookies and cleanse our pallets with some biscotti! Did I just say biscotti? That’s right! Raspberry Chocolate Chip Biscotti to be exact! And it’s pretty darn tasty!
Honestly, I’ve always assumed biscotti to be quite boring so I usually choose a big cookie or a slice of cake to go with my coffee, but that all changed on a recent family vacation to Washington state! I had some of the best chocolate chip biscotti with my latte one afternoon and I quickly became a fan! It was light and crisp with a slight chew and lots of chocolate flavor. I was surprisingly impressed and couldn’t wait to get home to bake some biscotti of my own.
So I did just that and it turned out great! It was way easier than I had imagined and the possibilities are endless when it comes to flavors.
Enjoy!

Description
Organic frozen raspberries bring such a beautiful color and sweetness to these light and crispy chocolate chip biscotti.
Ingredients
- 1/2 cup unsalted butter, softened
- 1 cup sugar
- 2 eggs
- 1 teaspoon vanilla
- 3 cups Gold Medal® organic all-purpose flour
- 3 teaspoons baking powder
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 3/4 cup Cascadian Farm® frozen organic red raspberries
- 3/4 cup mini chocolate chips, divided
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350°F. Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper and set aside.
- In the bowl of an electric mixer, beat the butter and sugar until well combined. Add the eggs and vanilla and beat until smooth. On low speed, beat in the flour, baking powder and salt. Stir in the frozen raspberries and 1/2 cup mini chocolate chips. Dough will be thick, cold and sticky.
- Using greased hands, divide dough in half and shape each half into a rectangular loaf on the prepared baking sheet. Sprinkle loaves with remaining 1/4 cup mini chocolate chips.
- Bake for 25-30 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean. Cool on cookie sheet 15 minutes.
- Cut crosswise into 1/2-inch slices and lay back on baking sheet. Bake 15 or until starting to brown and dry on top. Turn each slice and bake another 10 minutes longer. Remove biscotti to a wire rack to cool completely.

Is this for American Biscotti (which is not as hard) or English Biscotti please? Thank you!
Hi, Jody! With the biscotti, I’ve never heard it compared that way. The texture of my biscotti recipes are inspired by the best Italian biscotti (aka cantuccini) that we get in Florence when we go there. It’s crunchy but not crumbly. Crisp on the outside with a slight softness to the inside. Hope this helps! Enjoy!
I’m thinking about using wild organic frozen blackberries from our Washington home. Do you think that will work?
Hi Lee! They should work great! The color of the biscotti will look different, but they should still taste great. Enjoy!
Have you made these with strawberries? Can’t wait wake these!
Hi Anna! I haven’t, but I think they would be a great substitute for the raspberries. Enjoy!
Will this work with fresh raspberries?
Hi Ericka! Yes, it works great with fresh raspberries too! Just fold them in gently. Enjoy!
Can I use raspberry jam instead of frozen raspberries, and if so, how much would I use.
Hi Linda! The jam will be a lot sweeter than the raspberries so you might want to adjust the sugar or just use less of it. I would recommend using 1/2 cup jam in place of the raspberries. Hope this helps and that they turn out just as great! Enjoy!
