Time 22m

Number Of Ingredients 12

1/2 cup butter, softened to room temperature
1 cup sugar
1 egg
1/4 cup sour cream (or Greek yogurt)
2 Tbsp milk
3.4-oz box instant pistachio pudding mix
1/4 tsp almond extract
2-4 drops green food coloring (optional)
2 cups all-purpose flour
1/2 tsp salt
1/2 tsp baking soda
1/4 cup powdered sugar, for rolling cookies

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 325F and line a baking sheet with silicone mat or parchment paper.
  • In the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with a paddle attachment (or in a large mixing bowl with an electric mixer), mix butter and sugar together until creamy and fluffy.
  • Add egg and sour cream and mix until combined. Add in the milk, mixing to incorporate.
  • Add the pistachio pudding mix and almond extract and beat until smooth. If using green food coloring, add that now and mix to combine.
  • In a separate small bowl, whisk together flour, salt, and baking soda.
  • With the mixer on low speed, gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing only until fully incorporated.
  • Add powdered sugar to a small dish. Scoop cookie batter out by tablespoon, rolling into a ball. Roll each ball in the powdered sugar, turning to coat well. Transfer batter to prepared baking sheet.
  • Bake for 12-14 minutes, until edges are starting to turn golden-brown but centers still look just a little wet.
  • Allow to cool on the baking sheet for a few minutes before transferring to a cooling rack to cool completely.
