These cookies were chosen because of the fact that I happened to have pistachios on hand that no one was eating. I put the recipe together, baked the cookies, and tried a few. Let me start by stating that I'm not sure if my brown sugar was still good, it is possible it had gotten stale in the container I was using. However, these cookies were not palatable.
The crumble of the cookie was similar to that of a meringue, where it melted immediately in your mouth. Sometimes this is a good texture, other times, when nuts are mixed in, and sugar does not dissolve properly, the taste just does not sit well. Neither of us enjoyed these cookies, and they sat in an airtight container for quite awhile. I was hoping I would have the urge to bake a pie, or bar cookie with a crust that I could use the crumbled cookies for (I think they would be delicious for this use) but I never did, and the cookies ended up in the trash.
