  • In a large bowl, cream the softened butter until smooth. Add both sugars and beat until fluffy.

  • In another bowl, whisk together flour, baking soda, and salt. Gradually add dry ingredients to wet ingredients until just combined.
  • Fold in white chocolate chips and chopped pistachios.
  • Using a 1-tablespoon scoop, shape dough balls and place on prepared cookie sheets about 2 inches apart.
  • Bake for 12 minutes or until edges are lightly golden.
  • Let cookies cool on sheet for 2 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.
  • Store in an airtight container at room temperature up to 5 days.
  • Optional: To freeze unbaked dough, freeze scoops on tray, then transfer to bag. Bake from frozen by adding 1-2 minutes to bake time.

Notes

To keep cookies soft, store them with a piece of white bread. Freeze baked cookies for up to 3 months; microwave before eating for fresh-baked feel.
