Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 cup unsalted butter, softened
  • 1 cup brown sugar, packed
  • 1/2 cup granulated sugar
  • 2 large eggs
  • 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
  • 2 3/4 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1 cup shelled pistachios, roughly chopped
  • 1 cup chocolate chips (optional)

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. In a mixing bowl, cream together softened butter, brown sugar, and granulated sugar until light and fluffy.
  3. Add eggs one at a time, mixing well after each addition; stir in vanilla extract.
  4. In another bowl, whisk together flour, baking soda, and salt. Gradually add to the wet mixture until just combined.
  5. Fold in chopped pistachios and chocolate chips if using.
  6. Scoop rounded balls of dough onto the prepared baking sheet with space between each cookie.
  7. Bake for about 12 minutes until edges are lightly golden; centers should be slightly underbaked for chewiness.
  8. Allow cookies to cool on the baking sheet for about 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack.
