Pistachio Raspberry Thumbprint Cookies
Pistachio Raspberry Thumbprint Cookies are a delightful treat that combines the nutty flavor of pistachios with the sweet and tangy taste of raspberries. These cookies are perfect for any occasion, whether it's a holiday gathering or a simple afternoon snack.
To make these cookies, you will need the following ingredients per serving:
- 1/2 cup unsalted butter, softened
- 1/4 cup granulated sugar
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 1/2 cup finely chopped pistachios
- 1/4 cup raspberry jam
To start, preheat your oven to 350°F and line a baking sheet with parchment paper. In a large mixing bowl, cream together the butter, sugar, salt, and vanilla extract until light and fluffy. Gradually add in the flour and chopped pistachios, mixing until a dough forms.
Using a cookie scoop or spoon, form the dough into small balls and place them on the prepared baking sheet. Use your thumb or the back of a spoon to make an indentation in the center of each cookie. Fill each indentation with a small spoonful of raspberry jam.
Bake the cookies for 12-15 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden brown. Allow the cookies to cool on the baking sheet for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
These Pistachio Raspberry Thumbprint Cookies are a perfect combination of sweet and nutty flavors. The pistachios add a nice crunch to the soft and buttery cookie, while the raspberry jam provides a burst of fruity flavor. These cookies are perfect for any occasion and are sure to be a hit with anyone who tries them.
