Dough is enough for about 40 – 45 cookies:
250 g flour
1 pinch of salt
1 egg
Molding:
chopped pistachios
P REP ARATION
If your pistachios are not yet ground, you can grind them finely with your food processor.
Put the flour and icing sugar with a pinch of salt in a mixing bowl, add the finely diced butter and
all the remaining ingredients. Knead into a homogeneous dough using the dough hook of the
hand mixer or food processor.
Roll out the dough on a lightly floured work surface, not too thin (approx. 6 - 8 mm) (I use this
rolling pin for this and it's great!). Now cut out the cookies (I use a star cookie cutter, you can use
whatever you like!).
Allow the cookies to cool, and in the meantime mix a glaze from icing sugar and lime juice.
Spread this over the cookies and decorate with pistachios. Allow to dry on a rack.
Store in an airtight cookie tin, preferably with baking paper between each layer!

Tip: You can also make double-decker cookies from this wonderful dough. Simply roll it out a
little thinner and then fill it with pistachio cream (and then add the icing on top)... awesome!
