• Add the flour mixture in two batches, mixing on low speed. Fold in the cranberries and chocolate chips using either a wooden spoon or a rubber spatula.
• Dust the parchment paper with a little flour mix, and transfer the dough to the lined baking sheet using a rubber spatula. Sprinkle a little more fl our mix onto the dough, flour your hands, and divide the dough in half. Shape the dough into two mounded logs on the baking sheet. The dough will be sticky, so make sure your hands are really well floured. The logs should be 8 inches long by 4 inches wide by 1 inch high.
• Using a pastry brush, brush the tops of the logs liberally with the rice milk. Then sprinkle the tops with the remaining 2 tablespoons sugar.
• Bake in the center of the oven for 35 minutes.

• Return the slices to the baking sheet. Bake for 20 minutes, remove from the oven, flip the cookies, and bake for 20 minutes more, or until lightly golden. Remove from the oven and transfer the biscotti to a cooling rack. They will become extra crisp once they cool.
