Cherry, cardamom & pistachio icebox cookies
Cookies
I have a handful of favorite holiday confections that I make every year, but I’m always looking for something new and different. This is that cookie for me – born out of my love for buttery shortbread and a curiosity about how cherry, cardamom, and pistachio would get along in cookie form. Turns out they’re a smashing trio, with the orange zest adding brightness and the brown sugar a lovely caramel note, making me wonder why I haven’t always been making shortbread with brown sugar. I used the Cranberry-Pistachio Icebox Cookies from Gourmet as my jumping off point and made a lot of changes along the way. These cookies are incredibly, amazingly delicious with a cup of strong coffee. And even though they're perfect for the holidays, they can and should be made all year long. <br /> <br />
