Method
Step 1.
- Preheat your oven to 170°C (300°F) and line a baking tray with parchment paper.
- Ensure the butter is at room temperature. Place the butter in a mixing bowl and beat it to soften, either using a wooden spoon or a handheld electric mixer for about a minute. Add the caster sugar and mix together until well combined.
Step 2.
- By hand, gradually add the plain flour to the butter-sugar mixture. Mix gently with a wooden spoon until the dough starts to come together. Avoid over mixing to ensure a crisp texture. Add the ground pistachios to the dough, leaving a tablespoon aside for topping. Mix the pistachios into the dough until just incorporated.
Step 3.
- Once the dough has come together, roll it into a log or sausage shape. Wrap the dough in plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least one hour. After the dough has chilled, slice it into rounds about 1 cm thick. Place the rounds on the prepared baking tray.
Step 4.
- Bake in the preheated oven for 15-20 minutes, or until the cookies are lightly golden. Allow to cool on the baking tray completely. Drizzle each cookie with melted white chocolate and sprinkle with the reserved pistachios.
