Pistachio and Cardamom Cookies
Report
These cardamom cookies are the perfect blend of exotic flavors and traditional comfort food. The pistachio adds a unique twist. These are perfect for dunking in milk, yet fancy enough to serve at high tea.

Instructions
- Add the flour salt, confectioner's sugar, lemon zest, cardamon and butter to the bowl of a food processor and pulse until a dough forms.
- Add the pistachios and pulse again until combined.
- Remove from the food processor and roll into a log of roughly 6cm (2½ inches) in diameter and wrap in plastic wrap. Refrigerate for at least 30 minutes or overnight to allow the cardamon and lemon zest to fully infuse.
- Preheat oven to 190 celsius (375 Fahrenheit) and line a baking sheet with baking paper. Slice the dough into 24 cookies and bake for 10 to 12 minutes or until the edges begin to golden.
- Cool on the baking tray before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.
Notes
- Cookies are the best the day after baking as the flavours really come through then. Alternatively refrigerate the dough overnight before baking.
