Pistachio Pastries Recipe

Pistachio Pastries

From debwin 16 years ago

These are a bit time consuming, but well worth the effort. A fancy cookie that would be a great addition to anyones cookie recipe collection.

Filling: Melt butter, stir in honey and sugar then pistachio's. Set aside
Pastry: Sift together flour and salt. Cut in butter until fine and crumbly. Add ice water and stir with a fork until just mixed. Form into a ball, cover with cling wrap. Chill about 1 hour.
Roll dough very thin, cut with a medium round fluted cookie cutter. Place a small amount of pistachio filling onto each pastry circle. Brush edges with water. Fold over and press together.
Bake at 375F until lightly golden, about 12 minutes.
Glaze: Mix icing sugar and enough milk to make a thin glaze, add vanilla. Drizzle over slightly warm pastries.
