Raise your hand if the excuse to bake a ridiculous amount of cookies is your favourite thing about December. It’s mine for sure!
Every year I challenge myself to take on some holiday cookie classics and give them a bit of an interesting twist, and this year is no exception. These gorgeous green thumbprints are inspired by some of my favourite Middle Eastern dessert flavours – pistachio, cardamom, and rose.
You may notice that there’s a slightly unusual start to this cookie recipe, but here’s the deal: you want pistachios inside the cookie dough and on the outside. There’s an extra step that will give you fine pistachio flour for the dough, and perfect pistachio pebbles to roll the cookies in, and this involves sifting the processed pistachios to separate them by size. A little weird, but totally worth it, I promise.
