  • 2 ¾ cups all-purpose flour 340 g
  • 1 teaspoon cornstarch
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda

  • 1 ½ cups shelled pistachios
  • ½ tablespoon butter

Cookie Preparation

  • Melt butter over medium heat in a skillet. Add pistachios, honey, and sea salt. Toast for 4-5 minutes until fragrant. Cool and chop if necessary.
  • Whisk together flour, sea salt, baking soda, and cornstarch in a bowl. Set aside.
  • Beat melted butter and sugars in a mixing bowl until smooth. Add eggs and vanilla, beat until fully incorporated.
  • Gradually beat in the flour mixture until combined. Fold in chocolate chips and cooled pistachios.
  • Chill cookie dough for at least 30 minutes. Use a cookie scoop to form balls and chill again.
  • Preheat oven to 350°F. Let dough sit for 5-10 minutes, then shape on a parchment-lined cookie sheet. Bake for 9-12 minutes until edges are golden.
  • Cool on the baking sheet for 3-4 minutes before transferring to a cooling rack.

Notes

For best results, weigh your ingredients. Chilling the dough is essential for optimal texture. Underbake slightly to maintain chewiness.
