I wanted to share my love for Pistachio’s with this yummy recipe. My family would tell you my favorite food is Pistachio Almond ice cream by Blue Bell. They are right of course but I love chocolate just as much. Hope you enjoy these cookies as much as we do.
Pistachio White Chocolate Chip Cookies Recipe
The original recipe came from an article in the Sacramento Bee by way of Jane Dewey, a wife of a local pistachio farmer.
INGREDIENTS
- 1 cup of unsalted butter, room temperature
- 1 cup of sugar
- 1 cup of dark brown sugar, packed
- 2 eggs
- 2 tablespoons of milk
- 2 teaspoons of vanilla extract
- 2 1/2 cups of flour
- 1 teaspoon of baking soda
- 1 teaspoon of baking powder
- 1 teaspoon of kosher salt (regular salt will suffice)
- 1 cup of rolled oats
- 1 1/2 cups of coarsely chopped pistachios, raw and unsalted
- 1 1/2 cups of white chocolate chips
**1 small box of complementary pudding, like for these, pistachio. You can also do 1/2 butter, 1/2 Hi Ratio shortening and 1/2 cake flour. This makes an excellent cookie!!**
METHOD
1 Preheat the oven to 350 F. Cream the butter and sugars together on high speed for three minutes.
2 Add the eggs, milk, and vanilla and beat for 3 minutes, being sure to scrape down the sides of the bowl to ensure even mixing.
3 In a separate bowl combine the flour, baking soda, baking powder, salt, and rolled oats. Add the dry ingredients to the butter mixture slowly, being sure to scrape down the sides and bottom of the bowl once or twice to ensure even mixing.
4 Fold in the pistachios and white chocolate chips. Drop heaping teaspoonfuls onto parchment lined cookie sheets, add an extra pistachio or two on top of each bit of dough for decoration if desired.
5 Bake for 8-10 minutes or until golden brown. Allow to set up on the cookie sheets before moving to a baking rack to cool completely.
Makes 6 dozen.
