Steps:
- In a medium bowl, whisk the flour, baking soda, and salt to combine.
- In a large bowl, cream the butter and sugar together with an electric hand mixer until light and fluffy, about 5 minutes. Add the egg and mix until fully incorporated. Add the sour cream and vanilla and mix until creamy. Add the flour mixture, a third at a time, until fully combined.
- Lightly flour a work surface and turn out the dough. Press the dough together into a disc and wrap in plastic wrap. Chill for 1 hour in the refrigerator.
- Preheat the oven to 300˚F (150˚C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- Remove the plastic wrap from the dough and lightly flour a work surface. Roll out the dough to about ½-inch thick. Cut out circles using a glass or cookie cutter.
- Transfer the cookies to the prepared baking sheet, leaving about 1 inch in between cookies. Bake for 8 minutes, until the cookie bottoms are golden brown and the tops are pale. Let the cookies cool on a wire rack.
- Make the frosting: in a large bowl, beat the butter with an electric hand mixer until fluffy. Sift in the powdered sugar and mix until incorporated. Add the milk and continue to beat until the frosting is smooth and velvety. Add food coloring, if desired.
- Frost the cooled cookies and decorate as you wish.
- Enjoy!

PISTACHIO, CARDAMOM AND SAFFRON COOKIES
There is something decadent in the simplicity of shortbread cookies. Bursting with flavors, this easy cookie is gorgeous to behold, its heady aroma of saffron, pandanus and cardamom are inviting and intoxicating, and it is even more deliciously addictive at first bite. These cookies will surely test your willpower and your festive spirit of sharing. My paternal grandfather owned a cookie shop called 'Nandita's' in the mid-1970s, in Thane, a suburb of my hometown of Mumbai. He was a chef and restaurateur in his youth and loved to cook, particularly desserts. We called him Jadiya Dadaji -- or plump grandpa, as his love of good food showed in his cheeks and belly. Each Diwali, he would come home to cook something special for my father. To calm us eager kids, he brought with him one or more large tins filled to the brim with cookies. Sometimes my brother and I each got our own tin, at other times we got one large tin -- to share. These cookies are an homage to him, Jadiya Dadaji, and the love of nuanced flavors and cooking that he instilled in our family, particularly my mother and me.

Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Lightly grease a multi-cavity cookie tray (e.g. mini muffin tray, a muffin-top tray or a hemisphere pan) with the 1 tablespoon butter and set aside to chill.
- Combine the warm milk with the saffron threads, stir and set aside for 5 minutes until the saffron threads begin to bloom and the milk takes on a golden hue.
- Cream the remaining 1/2 cup butter with the granulated sugar in a large mixing bowl for 2 to 3 minutes until the butter is soft and the sugar has melted in. Add the crushed cardamom pods, finely chopped pistachios, the saffron milk with the saffron threads and a pinch of grated nutmeg if using and the pandanus water. Mix until well combined. Slowly add in the all-purpose flour and salt and mix well again. The mixture will be sandy in texture. Use a spatula to break up any lumps and stir it all until well combined and there are no dry spots.
- Portion the cookie mixture using an ice cream scoop and scoop it directly into the prepared chilled cookie tray. Lightly compress the mixture into the cavity using the back of a spoon. Fill each cavity to the top as these cookies will not rise. Chill any unused cookie mixture between bakes.
- Bake for 12 to 14 minutes or until the edges begin to lightly brown. The cookies do not change color or rise during baking. Carefully unmold from the cookie tray. Place them on a wire rack and allow them to cool completely before storing in an airtight container in a cool place until ready to decorate.
- To decorate: Arrange the cookies on a wire rack with a drip pan or cookie sheet underneath.
- Bring a few inches of water to a simmer in a medium saucepan. Place the melting white chocolate wafers in a heatproof bowl over the simmering water. The bottom of the bowl must not touch the water. Maintain a slow simmer and do not let the water boil. Using a silicone spatula, stir until the chocolate is melted. Quickly stir in one pinch of saffron threads while the chocolate is warm.
- Carefully pour the white chocolate over the cookies or dunk cookies into the chocolate. Alternatively, use a spoon to drizzle the melted chocolate over each cookie. Sprinkle the pistachio slivers, gold dust or sprinkles and more saffron threads before the chocolate hardens. Cool completely.
- Serve when the chocolate is firm.
- Store in a cool, airtight container for up to a week.

Steps:
- In a medium bowl, combine the flour, cardamom, and salt.
- In a food processor, combine the granulated sugar and ½ cup (65 g) pistachios. Process until finely ground. Transfer to a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment.
- Add the butter to the stand mixer bowl and beat on medium speed until smooth, 1 minute. Scrape down the sides of the bowl, then add the egg and vanilla and beat until almost combined. Add the flour mixture and continue to mix on medium-low speed just until the dough comes together. Divide the dough into 2 portions and shape into discs. Wrap in plastic wrap and chill in the refrigerator for 1 hour.
- Line 2 baking sheets with parchment paper.
- Working with 1 portion at a time, roll out the dough on a lightly floured surface to ⅛ inch thick. Using a 2 ⅝-inch (6-cm) scalloped-edge cutter, cut out cookies, then transfer to the prepared baking sheets, spacing 1 inch apart. Re-roll the scraps to cut out more cookies. Chill in the refrigerator for 20 minutes.
- Arrange the oven racks in the top and bottom third positions. Preheat to 350°F (180°C).
- Bake the cookies, rotating the baking sheets 180° and swapping top to bottom halfway through, until the cookies have set, 12-14 minutes. Let cool on baking sheets for 5 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely, about 20 minutes.
- Combine the powdered sugar and milk in a small bowl and stir until smooth; the icing will be thick.
- Using an offset spatula, spread the icing evenly over cookies, all the way to the edges. Return to the rack and immediately sprinkle the finely crushed pistachios and rose petals, if using, on top. Let sit until dry to the touch, 20 more minutes.
- Enjoy!

FLOURLESS ALMOND COOKIES WITH CARDAMOM, ORANGE ZEST, AND PISTACHIOS
Both cardamom and pistachios are essential ingredients in Persian dessert making. This dough is delicate because it doesn't contain any gluten, so be sure it's fully chilled and firm before rolling into logs and slicing into cookies.

Steps:
- Using an electric mixer on medium speed, cream sugar and oil in a large bowl until mixture resembles texture of wet sand, about 3 minutes. Add egg and orange zest and beat until just combined.
- Whisk almond flour, potato starch, cardamom, and salt in a medium bowl. Fold dry ingredients into oil mixture. Cover with plastic wrap and chill 1 hour.
- Spread pistachios in a single layer on a rimmed baking sheet. Divide dough into 2 balls. Roll each ball into 1 1/2" wide logs, then roll logs in pistachios to coat; reserve remaining pistachios for decorating, if desired. Wrap logs in plastic wrap and chill at least 1 1/2 hours.
- Arrange racks in upper and lower thirds of oven; preheat to 350°F. Line 2 rimmed baking sheets with parchment. Using a sharp knife, slice dough into 1/4"-thick rounds and arrange on baking sheets (about 12 per sheet). Sprinkle with reserved pistachios, pressing lightly to adhere (alternatively, drizzle with melted chocolate after cookies are baked, see below).
- Bake cookies, rotating sheets halfway through, until undersides are golden, 8-12 minutes. Transfer cookies to wire racks. Let 1 sheet cool completely before lining again with parchment and baking third batch.
- If you didn't sprinkle the cookies with pistachios, melt chocolate in a medium heatproof bowl set over a medium pot of barely simmering water, stirring occasionally, or in short bursts in the microwave, stirring in between bursts, until chocolate is smooth. Drizzle cooled cookies with chocolate and let set before serving.
- Do Ahead
- Dough can be formed into logs 3 days ahead; keep chilled. Cookies can be baked 3 days ahead. Store in an airtight container at room temperature.
PISTACHIO CARDAMOM BUTTER COOKIES

Steps:
- Make the cookies:
- Cook butter and cardamom in a small saucepan over medium heat, stirring occasionally, until butter is golden brown and fragrant, 6-8 minutes. Let stand 15 minutes, then strain butter through a fine-mesh sieve into a small bowl. Freeze until just firm, about 15 minutes.
- Meanwhile, whisk flour, salt, and baking powder in a small bowl.
- Transfer butter to the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment; add sugar. Beat on medium-high speed until pale and well combined, about 2 minutes. Add egg and beat until combined, scraping down sides of bowl as needed. Add dry ingredients and pistachios and beat on low speed just until combined.
- Turn out dough onto a clean work surface. Divide in half. Place each half on a 9x13" sheet of parchment paper with the long end facing you. Roll dough into 2 logs about 1 1/2" in diameter. Wrap each in parchment paper, making sure to cover ends completely. Chill until firm, at least 1 hour or up to overnight.
- Position racks in upper and lower thirds of oven; preheat to 350°F. Let dough stand at room temperature until soft enough to slice, about 15 minutes. Slice logs into 1/4"-thick rounds. Arrange rounds on 2 parchment-lined rimmed baking sheets about 1" apart. Bake cookies, rotating sheets halfway through, until bottoms are lightly golden, 12-15 minutes. Transfer sheets to wire racks and let cool.
- Make the glaze and assemble the cookies:
- Combine chocolate and oil in a small heatproof bowl. Heat in 10-second intervals in microwave, stirring, until melted and combined, 30-40 seconds total.
- Dip cookies halfway into melted chocolate and transfer to parchment-lined baking sheets. Sprinkle chocolate with pistachios. Chill until chocolate is set, about 10 minutes.
- Do ahead
- Dough can be made up to 2 weeks ahead; keep frozen. Let stand at room temperature until soft enough to slice, about 30 minutes.

Yield Makes 16 cookies

Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 350°F and set 2 racks at the upper-middle and lower-middle positions. Line 2 baking sheets with parchment paper or nonstick baking mats.
- In the bowl of a food processor fitted with the blade attachment, combine the pistachios, granulated sugar, confectioners' sugar, salt, and cardamom. Process until the pistachios are the texture of fine sand and there are no visible pieces of pistachio left, 60 to 90 seconds. Transfer the mixture to a large bowl and add the egg whites and vanilla extract. Mix with a rubber spatula until a thick, paste-like dough forms.
- Using a medium 1¾-inch (#40) cookie scoop or 2 tablespoons, portion out the dough and roll into balls. (The dough will be sticky, so don't fret if they are not perfect balls.) Place the dough balls at least 3 inches apart on the prepared baking sheets (8 per sheet).
- Bake both sheets at the same time, swapping the top sheet to the bottom rack and bottom sheet to the top midway through baking, until the tops of the cookies crack and the bottoms are just starting to brown, 12 to 14 minutes. (Don't overbake the cookies. They aren't the kind of cookie that browns that much on the top. It's best to err on the side of underbaking for this recipe.) Let the cookies cool completely on the baking sheets before removing with an offset spatula.
