It is that time of the year again, this recipe is one of my favourites. The colour is also per­fect for Christ­mas. It might be hard to find raw pis­ta­chio nuts so you can also sub­sti­tute with other nuts. I have tried mak­ing this recipe with almonds but my favourite is still pis­ta­chios (it might be a bit pricey but it is well worth it). I have illus­trated this recipe step-by-step instead of upload­ing pho­tos, it is so easy to make! It was a good quick recipe to make since I was scram­bling to bake them before Christmas.

Made some illus­tra­tions for fun!

They are so crunchy and are loaded with the pis­ta­chio nuts which bal­ance well with the tart taste of the cran­ber­ries. I think I eat too much every time I make them. This year they became a part of my hand­made cookie col­lec­tion presents.

Note: These are my own illus­tra­tions, if you would like to use them for your web­site, please pro­vide a link to by blog. Much appreciated!

HAPPY HOLIDAYS!
