Equipment

Ingredients
  

  • 2 1/2 cup Flour
  • 1 teaspoon Baking Powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon Baking Soda
  • 1/2 teaspoon Salt
  • 1 cup Butter Softened
  • 1 cup Brown Sugar
  • 1/2 cup Granulated Sugar
  • 2 Eggs
  • 1 1/2 teaspoon Vanilla
  • 1/2 Tablespoon Milk
  • 1 1/2 cup Milk Chocolate Chips
  • 1 cup Chopped Pistachios

Instructions
 

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees and line a cookie sheet with parchment paper.
  • Mix the flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt in a small bowl.
    2 1/2 cup Flour, 1 teaspoon Baking Powder, 1/2 teaspoon Baking Soda, 1/2 teaspoon Salt
  • In a large mixing bowl, cream the softened butter, brown sugar, and granulated sugar with a hand or stand mixer. Beat in the eggs, vanilla, and milk.
    1 cup Butter, 1 cup Brown Sugar, 1/2 cup Granulated Sugar, 1 1/2 teaspoon Vanilla, 1/2 Tablespoon Milk, 2 Eggs
  • Mix in the dry ingredients until combined.
  • Fold in the chocolate chips and chopped pistachios. Save a few pistachios to garnish the top of the cookies if you like.
    1 1/2 cup Milk Chocolate Chips, 1 cup Chopped Pistachios
  • Roll the dough into 12 large balls or 24 small balls and place on the cookie sheet.
  • Depending on the size of the cookies, bake them for 10 – 12 minutes. Remove them when they are golden brown. I like crispy edges with a chewy center, but if you like them a little less crispy, take them out when they barely turn brown. Let them sit on the tray for 2 minutes before moving to a wire rack to cool.

Notes

  • Don't skimp on the chocolate chips or the pistachios.
  • Let the cookies sit on the baking sheet for 2 minutes before moving them to a cooling rack.
  • Don't over bake the cookies.
  • If using a stand mixer, be sure to use the paddle attachment, not the whisk.
