Chewy in the middle and lightly crispy on the edges, these buttery cookies are simply delicious!
Cookie lady strikes again!! It’s been way too long since last posted a cookie recipe. Like woah, it’s been 6 months. Where has the time gone? Don’t worry, I’ve definitely still been making a batch of cookies every few weeks, but they just haven’t made it to the online space. These were just way too good not to share though, which is why I decided it’s cookie time again!!
Okay friends, let’s talk about this whole pistachio white chocolate situation. It’s time for a heart to heart. I went to the store with full intention to make some White Chocolate Macadamia Nut cookies and turns out Macadamia nuts are crazy expensive. Like, $26/lb expensive. That’s too much. Especially when you’re on week 4 of your grocery budget and you just can’t justify spending $8 on 1 cup of macadamia nuts. Nope. There are more important things. Sooo, I did a little searching in the bulk nuts aisle and found that shelled pistachios are only $13/lb. That’s HALF THE COST! Yes, definitely the better option. I got the roasted and salted variety which makes the yummiest sweet and salty combo for the cookie.
I don’t know if you, my beloved reader, are a thin and crispy on the edges, soft in the middle kind of cookie lover or a thick and chewy, lover of mega monster cookies kind of person. I think if you’re the latter, let’s just agree to disagree for this one moment and both admit that these cookies need to be in your cookie jar right now.
