Notes
Nutrition
These pistachio cookies are filled with nut flavor. To make their flavor even stronger you can roast your nuts first in the oven, allow to cool, and chop. They contain three different nuts, pistachios (of course), almonds, and macadamia nuts. And the white chocolate gives them a hint of sweetness to help balance all that nutty flavor. I added a little green food coloring to them to make them green but you don’t have to. They are crispy around the edges and chewy in the middle. These would make a great treat for St.Patrick’s Day or Christmas.
