Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Line baking sheet with parchment paper.
In a small bowl, combine flour and baking powder.
In a mixing bowl, mix butter, sugar and orange zest until light and creamy.
Add eggs one at a time. Once the eggs are fully combined, stir in the flour.
Mix in the dried cranberries and 1/2 cup of white chocolate chips.
Separate the dough in half, place on the baking sheet side by side forming it into two logs measuring about 2 1/2 X 8 inches.

Using a fork, drizzle the biscotti generously with white chocolate sauce.
Place in the refrigerator until the chocolate becomes firm.
