Pistachio Christmas Ribbon Bars image

I've been making these for over 20 years. A must have on my cookie platter every Christmas for they're a family favorite (and great any time of year). Very easy to make, colorful and tasty. People will think you've work very hard in the kitchen (we'll never tell). This recipe can easily be doubled (which I always do), and baked cookies freeze very well.

Number Of Ingredients 6

1/2 lb butter (I use butter) or 1/2 lb margarine (I use butter)

These bars are so good! I love the combination of flavors and textures. The shortbread crust is buttery and flaky, the pistachio filling is nutty and sweet, and the white chocolate ganache is rich and creamy.

I love the combination of flavors in these bars. The pistachios are nutty and flavorful, and the cranberries are tart and sweet. The white chocolate adds a nice richness, and the shortbread crust is the perfect base.
