  • 3
    Bake 15 to 18 minutes or until set. Immediately remove from cookie sheets to cooling racks.

    In small microwavable bowl, microwave 1 cup chocolate chips and the oil uncovered on High 1 minute 30 seconds, stirring every 30 seconds or until mixture can be stirred smooth. Dip half of each cookie into chocolate; wipe excess on edge of bowl. Sprinkle edge of dipped half with finely chopped pistachio nuts. Place on waxed paper to set, about 1 hour.

Tips from the Betty Crocker Kitchens

  • tip 1
    Dipping the cookie in chocolate gives it a finished look, but if you’re short on time, simply drizzle the melted chocolate over the cooled cookies.
  • tip 2
    Make ahead! Stir up the batter, wrap it tightly in plastic wrap and refrigerate for up to 2 days before baking. Allow the dough to come to room temperature before rolling it out.
