Tips:

Tips for Making Double Chocolate-Pistachio Cookies:

  • Use high-quality chocolate. The better the chocolate, the better the cookies will be.
  • Make sure your butter and eggs are at room temperature before you start baking. This will help the ingredients blend together more easily and will result in a smoother cookie dough.
  • Don't overmix the dough. Overmixing will make the cookies tough.
  • Chill the dough for at least 30 minutes before baking. This will help the cookies hold their shape and prevent them from spreading too much in the oven.
  • Bake the cookies until they are just set. Overbaking will make the cookies dry and crumbly.
