Method
 

Dough Preparation
  1. In a mixing bowl, blend the pistachio cream and softened unsalted butter on medium speed for about 2 minutes until creamy.
  2. Gradually add the granulated sugar while continuing to beat the mixture until fluffy and pale green, taking around 1 minute.
Incorporate Dry Mix
  1. Sift together the all-purpose flour, baking soda, and sea salt in a separate bowl.
  2. Slowly fold the dry mixture into the pistachio blend, mixing gently until just combined.
Add Mix-ins
  1. Fold in the roasted pistachios and chocolate chunks evenly throughout the mixture.
Shape Cookies
  1. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Drop rounded scoops of dough onto the sheet, spaced about 2 inches apart.
  2. Lightly flatten each ball to ensure they spread while baking.
Bake
  1. Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Bake the cookies for 10-12 minutes until edges are golden brown and centers are slightly soft.
Cool
  1. Allow the cookies to cool on the baking sheet for about 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack.
