Steps:
- Prepare a baking sheet lined with parchment paper
- In a small bowl whisk flour and baking powder.
- Place the butter and sugar in a large mixing bowl. Using a hand mixer like this one, beat the butter and sugar at medium-high speed until light and fluffy. Reduce the speed to low and add one egg at a time, beating gently until combined.
- Add the pistachios, cardamom, and vanilla extract. Mix with a spoon until combined.
- Stir in the flour mixture until just combined.
- Dust the lined baking sheet with flour. Spoon the dough on top. Refrigerate for 30 minutes.
- Heat your oven to 350 degrees F, adjusting a rack in the middle.
- Take the dough out of the fridge. Using floured hands, form a log that's about 12 inches long (it doesn't need to be perfect. The dough will spread during baking).
- Bake for 25 minutes, or until the dough is slightly golden, rotating the baking sheet halfway through.
- At this point, the dough should still be quite soft. Remove from the oven and let cool for 10 to 20 minutes. Take a serrated knife and cut the log into 1/2-inch slices. Arrange the biscotti slices flat in one layer on the baking sheet, keep them about 1/2 inch apart.
- Reduce the oven heat to 275 degrees F. Bake for another 30-35 minutes, turning the biscotti cookies over halfway through until crisp. Remove from the heat and transfer to a wire rack to cool.
- Once cooled completely, you can store the biscotti in a loosley covered glass jar or container.

PISTACHIO BISCOTTI
Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
- Lay the pistachios on a cookie sheet in a single layer. Bake for 10 minutes or until the nuts are lightly toasted. Remove from the oven.
- In an electric mixer, beat the butter until light and fluffy. With the mixer running, gradually add the eggs, sugar, and vanilla; mix until creamed. Add the flour, baking powder, and salt. Mix the dough until smooth. Using a wooden spoon, mix in the pistachios until evenly distributed.
- Put the dough on a lightly floured surface and cut in half. Roll each half into a log, each 12 inches long by 1-inch high. Place the logs on an ungreased cookie sheet and bake for 35 minutes or until the bottoms are lightly brown. Let the logs cool for 5 minutes and then place on a cutting board. Slice each log on a diagonal into 12 1-inch thick pieces. Put the cookies back on the cookie sheet and bake 5 minutes. Turn the cookies over and bake the other side for another 5 minutes. Store cookies in an airtight container.

PISTACHIO BISCOTTI THINS
Steps:
- Preheat oven to 350°F. and line bottom and sides of a 9 1/4 x 5 1/2 x 2 3/4-inch metal loaf pan with parchment paper.
- In a large bowl with an electric mixer beat whites with a pinch salt until they just hold stiff peaks. Gradually beat in sugar and beat until meringue holds stiff, glossy peaks. Sift flour over meringue and fold in with nuts and vanilla gently but thoroughly. Spoon meringue mixture into loaf pan, smoothing top, and bake in middle of oven until golden, 25 to 30 minutes. Cool loaf in pan on a rack 15 minutes and turn out onto rack to cool completely.
- Reduce temperature to 300°F.
- Peel off parchment and with a serrated knife cut loaf crosswise into 1/8-inch-thick slices. Arrange slices about 1/2 inch apart on 2 baking sheets and bake in upper and lower thirds of oven, switching position of sheets halfway through baking, about 20 minutes total, or until pale golden and crisp. Cool cookies on sheets on racks. Cookies keep in an airtight container at cool room temperature 1 week.
PISTACHIO BISCOTTI
Biscotti are easy to make and keep for up to 2 weeks in an airtight tin. They taste even better a day or two after baking. They are perfect for dunking, in red wine, sweet wine, coffee or tea. Almonds or walnuts can replace the pistachios if desired.

Steps:
- Heat oven to 350 degrees. Put butter and sugar in the work bowl of a stand mixer (or use a large bowl and hand-held electric beaters). Cream butter and sugar at high speed until pale, light and fluffy, about 5 minutes. Add eggs one at a time and mix well. Beat in lemon zest and almond and vanilla extracts.
- In a separate medium bowl, stir together flour, baking powder and salt. At low speed, add flour mixture to butter mixture. As dough is coming together, add the pistachios and mix until incorporated. You will have a soft, sticky dough.
- Divide dough into 2 equal pieces. With floured hands, shape each piece into a log about 12 inches long. Place logs well apart on a parchment-lined baking sheet. (Logs will spread as they bake.)
- Bake logs for 25 to 30 minutes, until firm and lightly browned all over. Remove and cool logs on a rack until cool enough to handle. (Don't rush this step or you risk crumbling when slicing.) Using a serrated knife, carefully cut into slices, crosswise or at a diagonal. Thicker 1/2-inch slices are easier to cut; thinner slices are a bit more elegant.
- Place slices in one layer on baking sheet and return to the oven until lightly browned, about 10 minutes (less for thinner slices). Flip each slice and bake again for another 5 minutes. Let cool completely, until biscotti are crisp and dry, before transferring to a tin.
CRANBERRY PISTACHIO BISCOTTI
The red and green make a great Christmas cookie. Have used other nuts instead of pistachios with success. If your pistachios are salted, omit the 1/4 teaspoon salt from the recipe.
