Pistachio Cookies

Pistachio Cookies

Based on a recipe from Yamina Belaachia. You may substitute pistachios for pecans if you want.

2c flour

1c (2sticks) butter

1c finely chopped pistachios

½ c powdered sugar

½ tsp salt

1 tsp vanilla

¼ tsp almond extract

Combine all ingredients, mix well, wrap the dough and refrigerate for a couple of hours. Make crescents (rolling and shaping by hand) and place them 1 to 2 inches apart on a cookie sheet lined with parchment paper. Bake at 375 for 12 to 15 minutes.

Roll cookies in powdered sugar when cooled.
