Ingredients
 
 

  • 200 g pistachios
  • 120 g all-purpose flour
  • 115 g butter at room temperature
  • 50 g granulated sugar
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 1 large egg white
  • jam (raspberry, cherry, cranberry, or your favorite choice)

Instructions
 

  • Place 70 g/2 ½ oz pistachios in a food processor, chop them slightly, and place in a bowl.
  • In the same food processor, add the rest of the pistachios and the flour and blend them completely. Once finely chopped and blended, add in the bowl with the crushed pistachios.
  • In a mixer bowl, add the butter and sugar and blend on medium speed until the butter is fluffy.
  • Add the salt and egg white and continue blending for 1 more minute.
  • Then, while blending, add the pistachio mixture in batches and continue blending until the mixture is homogenized.
  • Remove from the mixer, and make form balls of 25-30g (about 1oz), then create a dimple in the center with your finger, and place them on a baking pan lined with parchment paper.
  • Bake the cookies in a preheated oven at 175° C/345° F for 15-20 minutes.
  • Once ready, let the cookies cool slightly, fill the dimple with jam and serve.
