Description
Delicious and comforting Pistachio Chocolate Chip Cookies that combine nutty pistachios with rich chocolate chips for a delightful treat.
Ingredients
Scale
- 1 cup unsalted butter, softened
- 1/2 cup granulated sugar
- 1/2 cup brown sugar
- 2 large eggs
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 2 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips
- 1 cup pistachios, chopped
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
- Cream together softened unsalted butter with granulated and brown sugars until light and fluffy (about 2-3 minutes).
- Add in the eggs and vanilla extract; mix until well combined.
- Sift together the flour, baking soda, and salt in a separate bowl. Gradually add the dry mix to the wet ingredients, stirring just until combined.
- Gently fold in the chocolate chips and chopped pistachios.
- Drop spoonfuls of dough onto a parchment-lined baking sheet, spacing them about 2 inches apart.
- Bake for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden.
- Let the cookies sit on the tray for a few minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool.
Notes
For a dairy-free version, substitute coconut oil or plant-based butter. Chilling the dough enhances flavor and texture.
