Homemade Pistachio Wedding Cookies: A Perfect Treat for Your Special Day
Chill the Dough: Once your dough is ready, cover it with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes. Chilling the dough helps to prevent the cookies from spreading too much during baking and results in a firmer, more manageable dough.
Shaping and Baking the Wedding Cookies
Roll and Shape the Dough
Once your dough is chilled and firm, it’s time to shape your pistachio cookies. Wedding cookies are often small, bite-sized treats, so aim for the perfect balance of size and shape.
Form Small Balls: Roll the dough into small balls, about the size of a tablespoon. This size is ideal for wedding cookie trays and ensures that each bite is a perfect ratio of cookie to pistachio.
Flatten the Balls: Gently press down on each ball with your fingers to flatten it slightly. This will help the cookies bake evenly and give them the classic look of wedding cookies.
