Like the classic Italian biscotti, Tyler Florence's cookies are baked twice: first as a solid crust and then as individual slices. The pistachio cookies are quite firm, making them a perfect accompaniment to a variety of beverages. Try these cookies with your morning coffee or dip them in a cup of hot chocolate.

Cooking the dish according to the recipe:


  1. Preheat oven to 180C.
  2. Spread the pistachios on a baking sheet in a single layer. Bake for 10 minutes or until lightly toasted. Remove from the oven.

  3. Using a mixer, beat the butter until lightly fluffy. While continuing to beat, gradually add the eggs, sugar, and vanilla; mix until smooth. Add the flour, baking powder, and salt. Mix until the dough is smooth. Using a wooden spoon, fold in the pistachios.
  4. Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured surface and cut it in half. Roll each half into a log 12 inches long and 1 inch in diameter. Place them on an ungreased baking sheet and bake for 35 minutes, or until the bottoms are lightly browned. Let the cookies cool for 5 minutes, then transfer them to a cutting board. Cut the log diagonally into 12 thin slices, each 1 inch thick. Place them on the baking sheet and bake for another 5 minutes. Flip the cookies over and bake the other side for another 5 minutes. Turn off the oven and let them cool.
