Green Week: Pistachio Cookies

Get into the spirit of Saint Patrick’s Day with these festive cookies! Pistachio pudding provides the green coloring, but you could substitute another flavor like lemon or butterscotch.

Ingredients

3/4 cup butter (or margarine)
1 1/4 cup flour
1 packet Jello-O pudding (we used pistachio)
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
White chocolate morsels (optional)

Directions

Preheat the oven to 375 degrees. Combine pudding mix, butter, and vanilla in a medium bowl. Gradually add flour, while continuing to mix. Drop tablespoons of dough onto a baking sheet, and bake for 10 to 15 minutes. Let stand for about 5 minutes before dipping into melted white chocolate for an extra burst of sweetness!

Unbelievable!  After a day with these cookies, I’m never buying cinnamon twists again.  Surprisingly, they tasted AMAZING with cranberry juice - maybe its because there’s no eggs?  Either way, fantastic recipe.  So excited I found this blog!
