3 (4 ounce) bars dark chocolate, chopped, divided
4 tablespoons pink peppercorns
2 tablespoons chopped pistachio nuts

Categories     Cheese     Nut     Bake     Easter     Vegetarian     Kid-Friendly     New Year's Eve     Parmesan     Tree Nut     Pistachio     Shower     Party     Gourmet     Small Plates

Yield Makes 48 servings

Number Of Ingredients 4

1 cup grated Parmigiano-Reggiano (4 ounces)
2 tablespoons finely chopped unsalted pistachios
Special Equipment
a large nonstick baking sheet or nonstick baking liner such as silpat (optional)

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350°F with rack in middle.
  • Place silpat on a large baking sheet, or if not using a silpat or nonstick baking sheet, line a large baking sheet with parchment. Put rounded teaspoons of cheese 2 inches apart on baking sheets and spread each into a 1 1/2 inch circle.
  • Sprinkle each round lightly with chopped pistachios (about 1/8 teaspoon for each) and bake until just golden, 6 to 8 minutes.
  • Let crisps cool on sheet 1 minute then transfer to a rack to cool completely. Bake more crisps in same manner on cooled sheet, wiping nonstick or silpat in between batches (if using), or replacing parchment with each new batch.

Tips

  • Use high-quality ingredients. This will make a big difference in the final flavor of your crackers.
  • Toast the pistachios before using them. This will bring out their flavor and make them more fragrant.
  • Don't overmix the dough. Overmixing will make the crackers tough.
  • Roll the dough out thinly. This will help the crackers to be crispy.
  • Bake the crackers until they are golden brown. This will ensure that they are cooked through.
  • Let the crackers cool completely before serving. This will help them to crisp up.
