Baking Instructions

• Preheat oven to 325°F. Line a sheet pan with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat.
• In the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with a paddle attachment, or in a bowl with a hand mixer, beat the butter and sugar together on medium high speed until creamy and pale in color, about 4-5 minutes. Add the vanilla extract. Add the flour, pistachios and salt, and mix until just combined.
• Shape the dough into rounded tablespoons and place on the prepared baking sheet, about 1 inch apart. Bake until cookies just begin to turn golden brown, about 15 minutes.
• Let sit on the pan until cool enough to touch but still warm, then roll in powdered sugar. Let cool completely and then roll in powdered sugar again.
• Note: If you use salted pistachios, omit the salt in the cookies.
