I came across a dark chocolate chip & pistachio cookie recipe on Pinterest (where else?) that inspired me to remix a recent favorite: chocolate chip cookies with sea salt. I used the same recipe, but simply substituted dark chocolate and added a cup of chopped pistachios. The end result was sinfully delicious.
Ingredients:
3/4 cup granulated sugar
3/4 cup brown sugar
2 sticks of butter
2 eggs
1 tsp vanilla
2 1/4 cups flour
1 tsp baking soda
1 tsp salt
1 package of vanilla instant pudding
2 cups dark chocolate morsels
1 cup chopped pistachios
Directions:
Preheat oven to 350°
In a medium bowl combine flour, baking soda, salt. Set aside.
In a stand mixer, cream together butter & sugars. Add eggs one a time. Add vanilla.
Slowly pour flour mixture to combine with the butter/sugar mixture.
Add pudding mix. Stir in dark chocolate and chopped pistachios.
Spoon 1 inch balls onto cookie sheet. Bake at 350° for 9-11 minutes.
Sprinkle with sea salt promptly after removing from oven.
Enjoy!
