Saint Patrick's Pistachio Cookies

"These taste-tempting green pistachio cookies are the ideal Saint Patrick's Day treat! Two secret ingredients, avocado and applesauce, keep all the taste and texture!"

Ingredients :

• 1/2 ripe avocado
• 1/4 cup unsalted butter, softened
• 1/2 cup applesauce (such as Mott's®)
• 1/2 cup white sugar
• 1/4 cup skim milk
• 1 large egg
• 2 (3.4 ounce) packages instant pistachio pudding mix (such as Jell-O®)
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
• 1 teaspoon baking powder
• 1/2 teaspoon salt
• 2/3 cup pistachio nuts
• 2 cups unbleached all-purpose flour

Instructions :

Prep : 15M	Cook : 35M	Ready in : 35M

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Line 3 baking sheets with parchment paper.
• Puree avocado in the bowl of a food processor. Add butter and blend until creamy. Add applesauce, sugar, and milk; pulse to combine. Add egg; pulse until smooth. Add pudding mix, vanilla extract, baking powder, and salt; pulse until dough is smooth and pastel green.
• Place pistachio nuts in a resealable freezer bag and crush with a meat mallet. Add crushed pistachio nuts and flour to dough; pulse to combine.
• Drop tablespoons of dough 2 inches apart onto prepared baking sheets; flatten gently.
• Bake in the preheated oven until bottoms are beginning to brown, about 15 minutes. Remove from oven and cool on baking sheets, 5 to 10 minutes.

Notes :

• Grease baking sheets lightly instead of lining with parchment paper, if preferred.
• Substitute vanilla extract with the scraped seeds of 1 fresh vanilla bean, or 1/8 teaspoon of pistachio flavoring.
• I flatten the cookies with the end of the pusher from your food processor. If you don't flatten the cookies, they'll bake up in softly flattened mounds; they're lovely either way.
• Reynolds® parchment can be used for easier cleanup/removal from the pan.
