Ingredients
  

For the Dough
  • 1 cup Pistachio Cream Can substitute with any nut cream or butter if unsweetened
  • 1/2 cup Unsalted Butter Room temperature for best results
  • 3/4 cup Granulated Sugar Adjust based on sweetness preference
  • 2 cups All-Purpose Flour Sifted for light cookies
For the Mix-ins
  • 1/2 cup Roasted Pistachios Use salted or unsalted based on preference
  • 1 cup Chocolate Chunks Can substitute with chocolate chips
For Baking
  • 1 teaspoon Baking Soda Crucial for soft texture
  • 1/2 teaspoon Sea Salt Adjust according to pistachio saltiness

Equipment

  • Mixing bowl
  • hand mixer
  • spatula
  • baking sheet
  • Parchment paper
  • Cookie Scoop

Method
 

Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. In a large mixing bowl, combine the pistachio cream and softened unsalted butter. Use a hand mixer to blend until smooth and creamy, about 2 minutes.
  2. Gradually add granulated sugar, mixing for another minute until light and fluffy.
  3. Sift together all-purpose flour, baking soda, and sea salt in a separate bowl.
  4. Slowly add this dry mixture to your pistachio cream mixture while gently folding with a spatula.
  5. Fold in the roasted pistachios and chocolate chunks, distributing them evenly throughout the dough.
  6. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Using a cookie scoop, drop rounded portions of dough onto the prepared sheet, spacing them about 2 inches apart.
  7. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Bake the cookies for 10-12 minutes, until the edges begin to turn golden and the centers look slightly soft.
  8. Allow the cookies to cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
  9. Serve cookies with a cold glass of milk or a warm cup of coffee, and store them in an airtight container for up to a week.

Notes
