Ingredients

Scale
  • 1/2 cup unsalted butter (melted and browned)
  • 2/3 cup light brown sugar
  • 2 tbsp white sugar

  • 1 tbsp vanilla extract
  • 1 1/4 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1/2 tsp baking soda
  • 1/2 cup roasted and salted pistachios (finely chopped)
  • Flaky sea salt
  • 1 dark chocolate bar (chopped, approx. 3/4 cup)

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. In a medium-sized pan, melt the butter over medium heat until it becomes golden brown and fragrant. Remove from heat and let cool slightly.
  3. In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the melted butter, light brown sugar, and white sugar until well combined.
  4. Add the egg and vanilla extract to the mixture, whisking until smooth.
  5. In a separate bowl, sift together the flour and baking soda. Gradually fold into the wet ingredients until just combined.
  6. Gently fold in the chopped pistachios and dark chocolate chunks.
  7. Scoop uniform balls of dough onto the prepared baking sheet, leaving space between each cookie.
  8. Bake for 12-15 minutes until edges are golden but centers remain soft. Sprinkle with flaky sea salt immediately after removing from the oven.
  9. Allow to cool on a wire rack before enjoying.
