• porzioni: 36 servings
• tempo di preparazione: 10 minutes
• tempo totale: 25 minutes

Ingredienti

1 cup butter (2 sticks, softened and cut into pats)

8 ounce package cream cheese

¾ cups white sugar

1 egg

1 ½ teaspoons vanilla

2 ¼ cups flour (all purpose white flour)

1 teaspoon baking powder

½ teaspoon salt

1/2 cup chopped pistachios

½ cup chocolate chips

Istruzioni

Preheat oven to 350 degrees and get cookie or baking sheets.

Cream butter, cream cheese, and sugar in a mixer until combined.

Add egg and vanilla and beat until mixed.

Add flour, baking powder, pistachio pudding mix, and salt and mix until combined.

Stir in pistachios - the batter will be hard to stir.

Use a medium cookie scoop and place dough balls on the cookie sheets - 16 per sheet.

Bake in the middle of the oven for 15 min; check after 12 minutes - as we all have different ovens. They should be slightly soft to the touch and lightly browned on the edges. Let them rest on a cookie sheet for 5 minutes before removing them to the wire rack.

Optional: If dipping some of the cookies in chocolate, melt chocolate in microwave for 30 second intervals, stirring after each 30 seconds. My chocolate took 1 minute 30 seconds to melt.

Eat, smile, and enjoy.
