Title: Pistachio White Chocolate Biscuits
Post by: CreamPuff63 on October 14, 2009, 11:24:55 am
Ingredients:
100g pistachio kernels
200g good quality White chocolate, broken into pieces
1 egg, room temperature
100g light olive oil
200g brown sugar
150g Plain flour
75g Self Raising flour
50g good quality White chocolate - broken into pieces, reserved

Method:
Preheat oven to 180 degrees. Line 2 x baking trays with baking paper.

Chop pistachios in TM bowl, 5 seconds on Speed 5 and set aside.
Grate chocolate in TM bowl, 5 seconds on Speed 8 and set aside.

Insert Butterfly, and add egg, oil, sugar on Speed 4 for 20 seconds.
Remove Butterfly.

Add flour, pistachios, chocolate into TM bowl on closed lid position for 30 seconds on   :: Interval Speed.

Mix for 10 seconds on Reverse at Speed 4. Using tablespoon (walnut size) mixture at a time, roll mixture into balls.
Place on baking trays. Using a fork, press dough to flatten slightly.
Bake for 12-15 minutes, or until biscuits are light golden. Stand for 5 minutes on trays before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely. ***They will harden up as they cool down, so  do not be tempted to cook longer.

Clean TM  bowl. When biscuits are cooled, melt reserved white chocolate in TM bowl for  2 minutes at 50 degrees on Speed 3. Drizzle biscuits with white chocolate. Allow to set before serving.

Makes: 36 biscuits

I hope I measured the flour correctly - 1 cup = 150g

These sound lovely CP. It's no wonder DD printer needed another cartridge of toner!!! She blames me, don't know why, my TMX recipe file is bulging.

My DS21 fave biccies, and today he actually made his own so I have added his photo of the ones he made to the recipe. They are delish! Today it made about 24 biscuits - give or take some unsupervised eating of dough

Looks scrumptious CP (and DS) 😄

What's the duration after putting on the butterfly?

It's been a while since I made these myself so I asked DS, and he said you don't need to put the butterfly on, which is probably true. He followed the recipe, but it prob doesn't make a lot of difference.

JD he needs a kick up the behind in the kitchen  ;) most times I think I'm talking to myself but if something sinks in once in a while I don't mind

These are in the oven right now.  :)  If the finished product tastes half as good as the mixture they will be divine  ;D

Just taken these out of the oven - made with dark chocolate as I didn't have white.  Looking good ...
