Yield Makes 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 10

1/2 stick unsalted butter, softened
1/2 cup packed light brown sugar
6 tablespoons all-purpose flour
1/4 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
1/8 teaspoon salt
1/8 teaspoon curry powder
1 large egg white
2 ounces fine-quality bittersweet chocolate, chopped
1/2 cup shelled roasted pistachios, chopped
Equipment: a small offset spatula

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350°F with rack in middle. Line a large baking sheet with parchment.
  • Blend butter, brown sugar, flour, vanilla, salt, curry powder, and egg white in a food processor until smooth.
  • Glue parchment down with a dab of batter in each corner, then spread remaining batter evenly into a 14- by 10-inch rectangle (1/8-inch-thick) on parchment with spatula. Scatter chocolate and nuts evenly over batter, then bake until firm and golden-brown, 18 to 20 minutes. Transfer, still on parchment, to a rack to cool completely. Remove from paper, breaking into pieces.

Tips:

  • Use high-quality pistachios. Fresh, shelled pistachios will give your crisps the best flavor and texture.
  • Toast the pistachios before using them. This will bring out their flavor and make them more crunchy.
  • Use a food processor to chop the pistachios. This will give you a fine, even chop that will distribute evenly throughout the crisps.
  • Add a little bit of salt to the pistachio mixture. This will help to balance out the sweetness of the honey.
  • Use a silicone baking mat or parchment paper to line your baking sheet. This will prevent the crisps from sticking.
  • Bake the crisps until they are golden brown. This will take about 10-12 minutes.
  • Let the crisps cool completely before breaking them apart. This will help them to stay crispy.

Conclusion:

Pistachio crisps are a delicious and easy-to-make snack that is perfect for any occasion. They are made with just a few simple ingredients and can be customized to your liking. Whether you like them sweet or salty, crunchy or chewy, there is a pistachio crisp recipe out there for you.
