This is not your Grandma's chocolate chip cookie! It's even better! (Sorry, Grandma.)
I started with my favorite Gluten Free Chocolate Chip Cookie recipe. Then, I added chopped pistachios- which are buttery, nutty, and salty. And, they pair beautifully with semi sweet or dark chocolate chips!
How to Make Gluten Free Pistachio Chocolate Chip Cookies
First, mix the dough. In a large mixing bowl, beat the butter, brown sugar, sugar, vanilla, and eggs. Then, beat in the baking soda, salt, and gluten free flour blend. Finally, stir in the chocolate chips and chopped pistachios.
Next, refrigerate the dough. This will allow the dry ingredients to absorb moisture from the wet ingredients. It also allows the butter to re-solidify, which keeps the cookies from spreading in the oven.
Then, scoop and roll the cookies. Spoon cookie dough onto parchment-lined baking sheets. For uniformity, use a cookie scoop and roll the dough into balls. Then, bake at 350 degrees for 8-11 minutes, until golden brown. Allow to cool on the baking sheet before moving to a cooling rack.
Enjoy!

Are pistachios good for you?
Yes, pistachios are a nutritious food. Often referred to as a nut, they are technically seeds. A 1 oz. serving packs in 3 grams of fiber and 6 grams of protein. They are also a good source of Vitamin B6 and other antioxidants.
Best Ways to Soften Butter
Cookies almost always begin with softened butter. If you forget to set the butter on the counter, don't fear! There are many other options to choose from.
Set on counter for a few hours.
Microwave for very short increments (5-6 seconds.)
Grate butter. The small pieces will be soft almost instantly.
Cut into small pieces to soften in about 10 minutes.
Fill a glass with hot water. Then, pour out the water, quickly dry, and place the warm glass over the butter.
Tuck a wrapped stick into your waistband for a few minutes.
With a nutty twist, these gluten free pistachio chocolate chip cookies are soft, chewy, and completely irresistible!
