Ingredients
- 3/4 cup melted butter
- 1/4 cup corn oil
- 1 cup powdered sugar
- 1/2 cup flour
- 1/2 cup very fine pistachio
For decoration
- whole pistachio
Preparation
Position the wire rack in the middle of the oven and preheat the oven to 180°C
Get short-edged trays and line them with parchment paper
In the mixer bowl, put the butter, oil, and sugar, attach the beater, and mix on medium speed for 3 to 4 minutes until the mixture is light in color
Add the flour and pistachio, then mix on medium speed until a smooth and slightly soft dough forms
Take a walnut-sized amount of dough, shape it into a smooth ball, dip the end in pistachio, and place it on the tray, repeating with the remaining dough and leaving a small space between the balls
Bake the cookies for 8 to 10 minutes until the bottom is golden brown, then allow them to cool completely before serving
