Pistachio cookies

Pistachio cookies

I know this recipe from childhood but didn’t cook it for a long time. Don’t know why, just forget. Some days ago have seen this recipe in my old recipes copy-book and have decided to remind it. It is very interesting cookies so want to tell you.

You’ll need:

125g butter

100g sugar

2 eggs

125g flour

125g starch

1 tsp baking powder

2 tbsp pistachio

2 tbsp rum

100g fruit jam

Step 1: Whip butter, sugar and eggs. Sift flour, starch and baking powder together (right to the whipped mass). Add rum and knead a dough (in the beginning use spoon, then hands);

Step 2: Preheat oven to 200 ^oC. Place large piece of parchment paper on a baking sheet;

Step 3: Divide your dough in a pieces and make balls as walnut, strew it with pistachios and place them on the baking sheet. Flatten balls slightly and make a deepening in a centre of each ball;

Step 4: Bake cookies on a middle level of oven during 13 minutes until golden colour. Remove the cookies from the baking sheet and cool them on a wire rack. Fill up every deepening with jam.

M-m-m-m delicious!
