KESAR PISTA COOKIES ON A PAN
 
 
Ingredients
  • ½ tsp kesar/ saffron strands
  • 1+1/2 tbsp milk
  • ¼ cup butter
  • ¼ cup sugar
  • ½ cup all purpose flour
  • ¼ tsp baking soda
  • ⅓ cup pistachios, finely chopped
Instructions
  1. Heat the milk in a microwave for about 15 seconds and add kesar/saffron strands to it. Give it a stir and set it aside to infuse well.
  2. In a bowl, add butter and sugar and whisk it well till light and fluffy.
  3. Add the flour, baking soda and infused milk to the butter mixture and mix well to form a smooth dough.
  4. Divide the dough into equal portions. This recipe makes 8-9 cookies. Make small dough balls from the cookie dough and flatten them a bit from the centre.
  5. Lay one side of the flattened cookie on a plate of chopped pistachios so that it coats the full surface.
  6. Repeat this process for all the cookies and lay them on a parchment paper. Refrigerate for about 15-20 mins.
  7. Now, take a pan set on medium heat and place a small stand in the centre. Carefully take a plate lined with parched paper and place cookies on it. Place the plate over the stand and cover with a lid.
  8. Let the cookies cook for 10-12 mins or until browned at the bottom. Let the cookies cool before serving or storing.
