Description
A vibrant and healthy savory appetizer course featuring forty portions of baking sheet pan cookie rounds baked inside a preheated oven until crisp tossed inside a smooth caramelized glaze of fresh unsalted butter powdered sugar vanilla extract kosher salt flour and roasted chopped pistachios.
Ingredients
1 cup unsalted butter
1 cup powdered sugar
1 1/2 tsp kosher salt
2 tsp vanilla extract
2 1/3 cups all-purpose flour
3/4 cup roasted pistachios
1/2 cup coarse sugar
1 large egg
Instructions
Preheat your cutting workspace setting out a sharp chef knife tool and lining a wide heavy steel sheet pan with parchment sheets over the floor.
Beat the room-temperature unsalted butter powdered sugar vanilla extract and kosher salt inside a large mixing bowl container until smooth.
Whisk the all-purpose flour and chopped roasted pistachios straight into the wet lipid mix until a soft dough mass establishes.
Shape the dough mass forcefully into two long uniform cylinders wrapping tightly inside plastic wraps to chill inside the freezer for 30 minutes.
Preheat your kitchen oven unit to a steady 350°F (180°C) positioning a metal wire rack directly over the center guide tracks.
Brush the frozen log surfaces heavily with 1 beaten egg wash rolling the cylinders across a half-cup of coarse sugar crystals to coat.
Slice the logs cleanly with a knife into uniform rounds transferring the blocks onto the lined baking sheet pan floor basin.
Bake flat at 350°F for 20 minutes until the borders turn golden letting the cookies cool completely on a rack before serving.
