Ingredients
1 And ¼CupsAll Purpose Flour
¼TeaspoonSalt
1CupLight Brown Sugar
½CupCorn Syrup
1StickButter
1 CupChoppedPistachios
1TablespoonRosewater
Instructions
Preheat the oven to 375F/190C for 15 minutes.
Lightly grease or line baking sheets with parchment paper.
Sift the flour with the salt in a bowl and set aside.
Combine the brown sugar, corn syrup and butter in a saucepan over medium heat.
Bring to a boil, stirring occasionally.
Boil for 30 seconds.
Remove from the heat and stir into the flour mixture together with the chopped pistachios and rosewater. The batter will not be stiff like regular cookie dough. It will have the consistency of idli/dosa batter, so don't worry.
Drop the batter using a ½ tablespoon, 3 inches apart onto the baking sheets.
Bake for 7-8 minutes, until the edges are lightly browned.
Carefully remove the cookies from the baking sheets and store in an airtight container for up to 5 days.
Allow to cool on the baking sheets.
Notes
As per the original recipe a tablespoonful of dough should be dropped on a baking sheet. I did it and the cookies spread very much touching each other. Either reduce it to half a tablespoon of batter or give enough space between each cookie.
When I lifted the cookies from the baking sheet I noticed that the bottoms were very greasy due to the butter. So I had to give each and every cookie a nice dab with kitchen towels. So reserve these cookies for some special/fancy occasion. Do not indulge!
