This weekend Kajal (my daughter in low) made pistachios cookies,sha came across this recipe online and shared with me. These cookies are crumbly, and also very fragrant. Absolutely delicious and melt in the mouth.

1 1/4 sticks butter (room temperature)
14 cup white sugar
1/2 cup dark brown sugar
3/4 cup roughly ground pistacious
1 teaspoon baking powder
pinch salt
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1/2 teaspoon cardamom powder
1 teaspoon saffron+ 1 tablespoon milk (mix together)
1/4 cup approx ground pistachios for rolling the cookie dough.
In a mixing bowl,add butter,white sugar and brown sugar and lightly cream just until well combined.Add flor,cardamom powder, salt and baking powder. Mix well. Add prepared saffron milk, ground pistacious and mix well. Scoop equal size dough and roll into the ground pistachios.Place on baking tray couple inches apart as they will spread. Bake in the preheated oven at 300 degrees for 15 minutes or until the edges are slightly browned.Remove from the oven and let cool on the cooling rack.
