Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 350°F. Line a heavy large baking sheet with parchment. Combine the flour, baking powder, and salt in a medium bowl; whisk to blend. Using an electric mixer, beat the sugar, butter, eggs, and almond extract in a large bowl until well blended. Mix in the flour mixture, then add the cranberries.
- Divide the dough in half. Using floured hands, shape each piece into a 2 1/2-inch-wide, 9 1/2-inch-long, 1-inch-high log. Transfer both logs to the prepared baking sheet, spacing evenly. Whisk the egg white in a small bowl until foamy, then brush egg white glaze on top and sides of each log.
- Bake the logs until golden brown (logs will spread), about 35 minutes. Cool completely on the sheet set on a rack. Maintain oven temperature.
- Transfer logs to a work surface. Discard the parchment. Using a serrated knife, cut the logs on the diagonal into 1/2-inch-wide slices. Arrange the slices cut side down on the same sheet. Bake 10 minutes; turn biscotti over and bake until just beginning to color, about 5 minutes. Transfer to a rack to cool.
- Stir the chocolate in the top of a double boiler over simmering water until smooth. Using a fork, drizzle the melted chocolate over the biscotti. Let stand until the chocolate sets, about 30 minutes.
- DO AHEAD
- The BISCOTTI can be made 1 week ahead. Freeze in airtight container. Thaw at room temperature.
