Back in 2005, the late Ann Louise Ronci, owner of Only the Finest Gourmet Cookies and Wandi in Cranston, shared her recipe for Crème de Menthe Pistachio Finger Cookies.
These popular cookies are easy to make and you might want one about now.
Today, Only the Finest Italian Cookies is a virtual bakery from which people can order and arrange for pick-up or delivery from Ronci's daughter, Maria Bedrosian. You can go online to onlythefinestitaliancookies.com to view the menu or call (401) 450-9276 for more information. She also ships around the country.
Crème de Menthe Pistachio Finger Cookies
1 cup butter, softened
⅓ cup confectioner's sugar, sifted
2 teaspoons Crème de Menthe flavor, extract or liqueur
2 cups flour
Pinch salt
5 drops green food coloring (optional)
2 ounces semisweet chocolate pieces
1 cup pistachio nuts, chopped small
Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
In a medium bowl, beat butter with confectioner's sugar until light and creamy. Add Crème de Menthe flavoring. Add flour, salt and food color. Mix together. Roll by tablespoon into small logs, spacing apart on cookie sheet.
Bake about 20 minutes or until very lightly browned. Cool completely.
Put the pistachio nuts into a bowl. Melt the chocolate. Dip one or both ends of the cookies into the chocolate and then into the nuts.
For another variation, pipe out, or roll dough, any shape and sprinkle with pistachio nuts. Bake. Then dip ends in chocolate.
