Description

Soft and chewy white chocolate pistachio cookies loaded with roasted pistachios and creamy white chocolate chunks, finished with a drizzle of pistachio spread. (Makes 12 cookies)


Ingredients

  • 115 g unsalted butter, very soft (½ cup)
  • 50 g granulated sugar (¼ cup)
  • 75 g brown sugar (light or dark, packed) (⅓ cup + 1 tbsp)
  • 1 large egg, room temperature
  • 20 g pure pistachio paste, optional (1 tbsp)
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 200 g all-purpose flour (1 ½ cups + 1 tbsp)
  • ½ tsp baking soda (3 g)
  • 1 pinch of salt
  • 100 g white chocolate chips or chunks (⅔ cup)
  • 80 g roasted unsalted pistachios, whole (½ cup + 2 tbsp)

 

 


Instructions

  1. In a large mixing bowl, cream the softened butter with the granulated sugar and brown sugar until light and fluffy.

  2. Add the egg, vanilla extract, and pistachio paste, then beat again until smooth.

  3. Sift together the flour, baking soda, and salt, then fold the dry ingredients into the wet mixture until a cookie dough forms.

  4. Stir in the white chocolate chips and roasted pistachios (whole or roughly chopped).

  5. Scoop the dough into balls using a large cookie scoop and place them on a parchment-lined baking sheet, leaving space between each.

  6. Chill the cookie dough balls in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes.

  7. Bake in a preheated oven at 350°F (180°C) for about 15 minutes, until the edges are set but the centers are still slightly soft.

  8. Let the cookies cool completely, then drizzle with pistachio spread before serving.

 

Notes

Storage: Keep in an airtight container at room temperature for 3 to 4 days

Tips:

 

  • Always use a digital kitchen scale for accurate measurements.
  • Use softened butter for a smooth cookie dough.
  • Don’t overmix once the flour is added.
  • Let the cookies cool completely before adding the pistachio spread drizzle.
  • Space the cookie dough balls well on the baking sheet — they will spread while baking.
