Ingredients
  

For the Cookie Base
  • 1 cup Pistachio Cream Substitute with any unsweetened nut cream if needed.
  • 1 cup Unsalted Butter Use at room temperature for best texture.
  • 3/4 cup Granulated Sugar Feel free to adjust for sweetness.
  • 2 cups All-Purpose Flour Sift for lighter cookies.
  • 1 teaspoon Baking Soda Essential for achieving soft and puffy texture.
For the Mix-ins
  • 1/2 cup Roasted Pistachios Choose between salted or unsalted.
  • 1 cup Chocolate Chunks Can swap in chocolate chips if preferred.
  • 1/2 teaspoon Sea Salt Adjust according to pistachios' saltiness.

Equipment

  • Mixing Bowl
  • Baking sheet
  • Parchment Paper
  • cookie scoop or spoon
  • rubber spatula

Method
 

Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. In a mixing bowl, blend together the pistachio cream and softened unsalted butter until smooth, about 2-3 minutes. Gradually incorporate the granulated sugar until light and fluffy.
  2. Sift together the all-purpose flour, baking soda, and sea salt in a separate bowl. Slowly fold this dry mix into the pistachio mixture using a rubber spatula, being careful not to overmix.
  3. Gently fold in the roasted pistachios and chocolate chunks, ensuring they are evenly distributed throughout the dough.
  4. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Drop rounded portions of dough onto it, leaving 2 inches of space between each scoop. Press down slightly on each mound to flatten them a bit.
  5. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Once heated, bake the cookies for 10-12 minutes, until the edges turn golden while the centers remain soft.
  6. Let the cookies rest on the sheet for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
  7. Enjoy the cookies warm, pairing them with milk or coffee, and store any leftovers in an airtight container.
