Pistachio Chocolate Chip Cookies
Think of your favorite chocolate chip cookie… Are they Toll House, or Mrs. Fields? Are they chewy? COVERED in giant chocolate chips?Whatever your favorite, we’re here to tell you, they can ALL be improved by the addition of one simple ingredient—ground pistachios. Pistachios add a slightly sweet, almost buttery nutty flavor that will make your cookies feel a little bit elevated, but still just as classic and comforting.
Ingredients
- 3/4 c. pistachios
- 2 c. all-purpose flour
- 1 tsp. baking soda
- 3/4 c. extra-virgin olive oil
- 3/4 c. packed brown sugar
- 1/2 c. granulated sugar
- 2 large eggs
- 1 tsp. pure vanilla extract
- 5 oz. dark chocolate, roughly chopped
Direction
- Preheat oven to 350° with racks in the center and lower third of the oven. Line 2 baking sheets with parchment paper. In a food processor, pulse pistachios into fine crumbs.
- In a medium bowl, combine ground pistachios, flour, and baking soda.
- In a large bowl, whisk oil and sugars for 2 minutes. Add eggs one at a time, whisking well after each addition, and whisk in vanilla. Add dry ingredients and stir with a rubber spatula until just combined. Stir in chopped chocolate.
- Using a medium cookie scoop (about 2 tablespoons), scoop dough onto prepared baking sheets 2” apart.
- Bake until edges are just set and lightly golden, 12 to 14 minutes. Let cool 5 minutes, then transfer to cooling rack to cool completely.
