  1. Mix Wet Ingredients:
    Whisk together butter, sugar, vanilla, and egg in a mixing bowl until well combined.
  2. Combine Dry Ingredients
    Gradually mix the flour, cocoa powder, salt, and baking soda.
  3. Add Chocolate and Pistachios:
    Fold in the dark chocolate drops and coarsely chopped pistachios until evenly distributed.
  4. Chill Dough
    Roll the dough into a large log shape, wrap it in plastic wrap, and chill for at least 1 hour. The firmer the dough, the easier it will be to slice.
  5. Slice
    Preheat the oven to 175°C. Slice the chilled dough into 2 cm thick pieces and arrange them on a baking tray lined with parchment paper, ensuring sufficient space between the cookies.
  6. Bake and Serve
    Bake the cookies for 12 to 15 minutes, then transfer them to wire racks to cool completely.

    I love how the hint of cocoa balances the sweetness. It’s such a great combo! Super easy to make and totally addictive.

    It tasted really good but in my opinion, 150g is just too much pistachio I cut it to half which was perfect for me.
