Ingredients
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- Prepare the pistachios: Blend pistachios in a food processor until finely ground. Do not over-process to avoid turning them into pistachio butter.
- Cream butter and sugar: In a mixing bowl, beat the softened butter and sugar until light and fluffy, about 2 minutes.
- Add wet ingredients: Mix in the egg yolk and vanilla extract until fully incorporated.
- Combine dry ingredients: In another bowl, whisk together the flour, ground pistachios, and salt. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture and mix until a dough forms.
- Shape the cookies: Roll the dough into small balls (about 1 inch in diameter) and flatten slightly. Place the dough balls onto the prepared baking sheet, ensuring there’s about 2 inches of space between each one.
- Decorate (optional): Sprinkle the tops with chopped pistachios for extra flavor and texture.
- Bake: Bake for 12-15 minutes or until the edges are lightly golden. Take the cookies out of the oven and let them sit on the baking sheet for 5 minutes to cool slightly before moving them to a wire rack to cool completely.
