Bon Appetit, January 2015
Prep Time 1 hour 15 minutes
Cook Time 10 minutes
Total Time 1 hour 25 minutes
Servings 36

Ingredients
  

  • 1 cup shelled pistachios
  • 1 cup old-fashioned oats
  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1/2 tsp. salt
  • 1/2 tsp. baking soda
  • 1 cup 2 sticks butter, room temperature
  • 1/3 cup granulated sugar
  • 1/4 cup confectioners sugar

Instructions
 

  • Place pistachios, oats, flour, salt and soda in your food processor or Vitamix. Pulse several times until pistachios are broken down but still visible.
  • In a medium bowl, use an electric mixer to beat butter and sugars until light and fluffy; about 5 minutes. Slowly add in nut mixture and mix on low speed until just incorporated. Turn dough out onto parchment paper and finish mixing by hand.
  • Divide dough into two equal pieces. Shape into 2 logs about 1 1/2-inches in diameter. Wrap each in parchment paper and chill until firm, at least 1 hour or up to 5 days in advance.
  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Line two baking sheets with parchment paper. Slice dough logs into 1/4-inch thick slices; spaced about 1/2-inch apart. Bake 9-10 minutes until barely golden. Allow to cool 10 minutes before serving.
