Ingredients

  • 2 cups all-purpose flour

  • ½ teaspoon baking soda

  • ¼ teaspoon salt

  • ½ cup unsalted butter, softened

  • ½ cup granulated sugar

  • ½ cup brown sugar

  • 1 large egg

  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

  • 1 cup dark chocolate chunks

  • ¾ cup shelled pistachios, roughly chopped

Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

  • In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, and salt.

  • In a large mixing bowl, cream the butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar until light and fluffy.

  • Add the egg and vanilla extract, mixing until smooth and well combined.

  • Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture, mixing just until a soft dough forms.

  • Fold in the dark chocolate chunks and chopped pistachios until evenly distributed.

  • Scoop tablespoon-sized portions of dough and place them on the prepared baking sheet, leaving space between each cookie.

  • Gently press the tops slightly to flatten the dough.

  • Bake for 10–12 minutes, until the edges are lightly golden while the centers remain soft.

  • Allow the cookies to cool on the baking sheet for about 5 minutes, then transfer them to a wire rack to cool completely.

Notes

Use good-quality dark chocolate for the best rich flavor.Roasted pistachios enhance the nutty taste and add extra crunch.Sprinkle flaky sea salt on top before baking for a sweet-salty contrast.Avoid overbaking to keep the centers soft and chewy.For bakery-style cookies, press a few extra chocolate chunks and pistachio pieces on top before baking.
