Scoop tablespoon-sized portions of dough and roll into balls. Arrange evenly on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper, leaving space between each.

Bake in a preheated 350°F (175°C) oven for 20–25 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden. Cool completely on a wire rack.

Dip half of each cooled cookie into melted dark chocolate, then sprinkle immediately with chopped pistachios. Set the cookies on parchment paper until the chocolate sets.
# Extra Tips:
