Cooking the dish according to the recipe:
- In a food processor or blender, puree the persimmon until smooth.
- In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, cinnamon, cloves, nutmeg, and salt. In a large bowl, beat the butter and sugar with a mixer on medium-high speed until fluffy, about 2 minutes. Beat in the egg and vanilla extract until fully combined, then whisk in 3/4 cup of the persimmon puree. (The mixture may look curdled.) Reduce mixer speed to low; gradually beat in the flour mixture and combine. Fold in the raisins with a rubber spatula. Cover and refrigerate the dough for about 30 minutes.
- Position oven racks in the upper and lower thirds of the oven; preheat to 350°F (175°C). Line 2 baking sheets with parchment paper. Scoop 1 heaping tablespoon of batter into each prepared baking sheet, spacing them about 2 inches (5 cm) apart. Bake, rotating the baking sheets halfway through, until the cookies are golden brown, about 13 minutes. Let cool completely on the baking sheets.
Prepare the glaze:
In a small bowl, combine powdered sugar and milk. Spoon about 1 teaspoon of icing onto each cookie and sprinkle with pistachios. Let set for 10 minutes.
