NANI'S PISTACHIO CARDAMOM COOKIES (NAN KHATAI)



Nani's Pistachio Cardamom Cookies (Nan Khatai) image

These pistachio cookies are loaded with almonds, cardamom and speckled with pistachios. They contain whole semolina, which gives them a unique, melt in your mouth, crumbly texture.

Categories     Cookies

Time 25m

Number Of Ingredients 8

2 cups all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon baking powder
1 and 1/4 cup granulated sugar
1 cup shortening, such as Crisco
1/2 cup semolina, whole
1 tablespoon pulverized almonds (almond meal will also work)
1/4 teaspoon cardamom powder
24 pistachios, shelled

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F and place two racks near the center of the oven.
  • In a medium bowl, sift the flour and baking powder together and set aside.
  • In a large bowl, combine the sugar and Crisco, using a rubber spatula, fold until the sugar starts to incorporate with the Crisco. Add the semolina, pulverized almonds, and cardamom powder to the sugar and Crisco mixture and fold to incorporate. Add the flour in all at once and using the spatula or clean hands, form a large dough ball. Portion out 24 pieces.
  • Take a portion in the palm of your hand and form a loose fist around it. This will slightly soften the shortening and make it easier to form a ball. Roll the dough between both palms to form a ball. Place the dough ball on a baking sheet lined with parchment, slightly press down to flatten the top and place a pistachio in the center. Repeat the process with all portions.
  • Bake for 15 - 18 minutes. The cookies will remain about the same color as prior to baking. Do not brown.
