Ever had green shortbread? This shortbread recipe results in a pretty green treat full of yummy pistachio flavor perfect for Sta. Patrick’s Day, a spring tea or just an any day treat.
Pistachio is one of my favorite flavors, but I rarely cook with them. When I ran across this shortbread recipe that used pistachios and was so pretty green, I couldn’t wait to try it.
This shortbread recipe come together really quickly. I did have some issues getting the dough to form, but a teaspoon of water did the trick. I also lost a lot of pistachios when flipping the shortbread out of the pan. Next time, I’ll try to mix a few in to the dough. Overall, though, this is a delicious shortbread with a great pistachio flavor. I would suggest eating the shortbread within a few days as the flavor really diminished with time.
