Comment préparer Lemon Basil Cookies With Pistachios

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Line baking sheets with parchment paper.
  2. Cream together 1 cup (2 sticks) unsalted butter and ¾ cup granulated sugar in a large bowl using an electric mixer until light and fluffy.
  3. Beat in 1 large egg, the zest of 1 lemon, 2 tablespoons lemon juice, and 2 tablespoons finely minced fresh basil until well combined.
  4. In a separate bowl, whisk together 2 ½ cups all-purpose flour, 1 teaspoon baking soda, and ½ teaspoon salt.
  5. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined. Do not overmix.
  6. Cover the dough and chill in the refrigerator for at least 1 hour (or up to 24 hours).
  7. In a small bowl, combine ½ cup shelled pistachios (roughly chopped) and 3 tablespoons granulated sugar.
  8. Roll the chilled dough into 1-inch balls. Roll each ball in the pistachio-sugar mixture, ensuring it's evenly coated.
  9. Place the coated dough balls onto the prepared baking sheets, leaving about 2 inches between each cookie.
  10. Gently flatten each cookie to about ½-inch thickness using the bottom of a glass or measuring cup.
  11. Bake for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden brown.
  12. Let the cookies cool on the baking sheets for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
