Description

These pistachio cookies have the same tender, melt-in-your mouth texture as classic snowball cookies, but with a couple twists: Finely chopped pistachios take the place of ground almonds, and instead of being dusted with confectioners' sugar after baking, they're rolled in crunchy sparkling sugar and extra pistachios before going into the oven. The resulting cookies are simultaneously crisp and soft, with the delicate, buttery flavor of pistachios and an eye-catching glimmer that's bound to stand out on any cookie plate.
