PISTACHIO-ORANGE THUMBPRINT COOKIES WITH CHOCOLATE GANACHE RECIPE BY TASTY
Inspired by the flavors of biscotti, these little cookies are a breeze to make. The savory, nutty pistachio pairs beautifully with the bright orange and decadent chocolate to make every bite exciting. The corn syrup in the ganache is optional, but makes for a glossy and smooth chocolate center.

Steps:
- Line 2 baking sheets with parchment paper.
- Add the pistachios to the bowl of a food processor and process until ground into a slightly coarse, but even crumb (it should resemble almond flour and hold together briefly when pressed between your fingers). Measure out ¾ cup plus 2 tablespoons of the ground pistachio and transfer to a medium bowl, reserving the remaining 2 tablespoons for garnish.
- Add the flour, salt, and baking powder to the bowl with the ground pistachios and whisk to combine.
- In a large bowl, cream together the butter and sugar with an electric mixer on medium speed until light and fluffy, 1-2 minutes. Add the egg and orange zest and beat until evenly distributed.
- Add the dry ingredients to the butter mixture in 3 additions, mixing after each addition until just incorporated. Finish bringing the dough together with your hands, if needed.
- Use a ½-ounce scoop, portion the dough onto the prepared baking sheets, spacing 2 inches apart. Press the tip of your thumb or the back of a wooden spoon into the center of each cookie to create a deep well, being careful not to press through the cookie entirely. Lightly cover with plastic wrap and transfer to the freezer for 30 minutes, or refrigerate for about 1 hour, until firm.
- Arrange the racks in the center of the oven. Preheat the oven to 350°F (180°C).
- Bake the cookies for 14-16 minutes, turning once halfway through, until puffed and golden on the bottoms. The thumbprints will lose some of their definition during baking, so use the back of a teaspoon measure to press into indentation immediately after removing from the oven, then let cool completely, about 20 minutes.
- While the cookies cool, make the ganache: Add the chocolate to a medium bowl. Microwave the cream on medium power for 45-60 seconds, until just steaming. Pour the hot cream over the chocolate and let sit for 1-2 minutes to give the chocolate time to melt. Add the corn syrup, if using, then whisk until completely smooth. Transfer the ganache to a piping bag or zip-top bag.
- Once the cookies have cooled, pipe (or spoon) about 1½ teaspoons of ganache into each thumbprint. Alternatively, use a teaspoon to spoon the ganache onto the cookies. Garnish each cookie with the reserved pistachio flour or a single whole pistachio, if desired. Let the ganache set for about 30 minutes before serving.
- Enjoy!

PISTACHIO ORANGE SHORTBREAD
The "short" in shortbread refers to the texture of the pastry-crumbly, crisp and buttery. But shortbread is also easy, the perfect cookie to make when you're short on time. The dough comes together in minutes, pats out into one sheet, and is baked, no scooping or portioning to worry about. Just speedy cookies for anyone with a short attention span. (I can't stop.) If you only have a 9 1/2-inch tart pan, feel free to use it; the shortbread will be slightly thicker and will need to bake a few extra minutes.

Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Butter an 11-inch fluted tart pan with a removable bottom. In a large bowl, with an electric mixer on medium, beat the butter and sugar until combined and fluffy, about 2 minutes. Add the egg yolks and orange zest and beat until combined. Beat in the flour, salt and baking powder. Add the pistachios and beat just until evenly distributed.
- Tip the dough into the prepared pan and press it into an even layer. Freeze until firm, about 15 minutes.
- Sprinkle the top of the dough with sanding sugar and bake on a rimmed baking sheet until the shortbread is golden brown and set, 20 to 25 minutes. Transfer the baking sheet holding the tart pan to a rack to cool for a few minutes. While the dough is still warm, remove the pan edges and cut the cookie into wedges. Let cool completely.
- Carefully separate the wedges and set them on a work surface. Drizzle with melted chocolate. Let stand at room temperature until the chocolate has set, about 1 hour.

Steps:
- Line a baking sheet with foil, shiny-side up; smooth out the creases. Make sure all your tools are dry.
- Chop the white chocolate into 1/2-inch pieces with a large knife. Place all but 1 cup of the chopped chocolate in a microwave-safe bowl. Microwave 30 seconds, then stir with a rubber spatula. Continue microwaving and stirring at 30-second intervals until melted, 3 to 5 minutes total. Immediately add the reserved chopped chocolate to the bowl; stir vigorously until melted and shiny. Don't worry if there are a few small unmelted pieces.
- Pour the white chocolate onto the prepared baking sheet; use the rubber spatula to spread it into a 10-to-12-inch circle, about 1/4 inch thick.
- Press the pistachios, cranberries and candied orange peel into the chocolate, arranging them so each bite has a mix of flavors and textures. Let the bark harden completely at room temperature, about 1 hour. (If the room is warm, you may need to freeze the bark for a few minutes.) Break into pieces and store in an airtight container at room temperature for 1 to 2 weeks.

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 350°F and line 2 large baking sheets with parchment paper.
- Make dough:
- In a small bowl whisk together egg and extracts. In a food processor pulse together flour, pistachios, sugar, and salt until combined well (do not finely grind nuts). Add butter in pieces and pulse just until mixture resembles coarse meal. Add egg mixture with motor running and pulse just until dough forms a ball. Turn dough out onto a work surface and with heel of hand press dough together just until smooth and cohesive.
- Form level teaspoons of dough into balls and arrange about 1 inch apart on baking sheets. With your thumb gently make an indentation in center of each ball, pressing down almost to bottom.
- Bake cookies in batches in lower third of oven until bottoms are pale golden, about 12 minutes. Cool cookies on baking sheets on racks 5 minutes and transfer with a spatula to racks to cool completely.
- Make topping:
- In a small heavy saucepan melt butter and chocolate over low heat, stirring until smooth, and remove pan from heat. Coarsely chop (keeping separate) pistachios and cranberries.
- Working with 10 cookies at a time, spoon 1/4 teaspoon chocolate mixture into each indentation and sprinkle pistachios and cranberries over chocolate centers. Let chocolate centers set 30 minutes. Cookies keep, layered between sheets of wax paper in an airtight container at cool room temperature, 10 days.
ORANGE-CHOCOLATE SHORTBREAD COOKIES WITH PISTACHIO
Steps:
- Set racks in the upper and lower thirds of an oven, and preheat to 325 degrees. In the bowl of a standing mixer, fitted with a paddle attachement, beat the butter and sugars on medium speed for about ten minutes, or until the mixture is light in color, and very soft and fluffy. Stir in the orange oil and zest. In a separate bowl, measure out and then sift the flour. Fold the flour into the batter by hand, taking caution not to overmix. Place a handful of the dough at a time on a lightly floured work surface. With a lightly floured hand, pat each piece down to 3/8-inch thick. Connect each piece to the next, making a rough rectangular shape. If the dough sticks, loosen it with a small paddle knife or spatula. Try to use the flour sparingly. Cut the dough, using a round metal cutter, about 2 inches in diameter. Transfer the cut pieces onto the prepared pans, spacing about 1 1/2 inches between each. Press remaining scraps together and continue cutting until there are no scraps left. Bake the shortbreads for 15-20 minutes, rotating the cookie sheets from bottom to top shelves half-way through the cooking process. The cookies will be pale golden in color when they are done. Allow to cool for two minutes on the cookie sheets, then transfer to a cooling rack. Melt the chocolate over a double boiler. Meanwhile, spread chopped pistachios out upon a large plate. Clear a space next to the plate of pistachios for the bowl of melted chocolate, and on the other side, for parchment paper to set the finished cookies on. Once the cookies are completely cool, dip the bottoms (about one third of the way up) in the melted chocolate. Immediately dip melted chocolate portion of the cookie in the pistachios. Set the finished cookies on a piece of parchment, and allow the chocolate to harden. Store in a tightly-covered container.
