Instructions
In a bowl, whisk together flour, pistachio pudding mix, baking soda, and salt. Set aside.
In another bowl, cream butter, brown sugar, and granulated sugar until light and fluffy (3–5 minutes).
Beat in the egg and vanilla extract until combined.
Gradually add dry ingredients and mix until just combined. Add food coloring if desired.
Fold in white chocolate chips and chopped pistachios.
Cover and refrigerate dough for 30 minutes.
Preheat oven to 325°F (165°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Scoop tablespoon-sized dough balls onto the sheet, spacing apart.
Bake for 12–14 minutes, until edges are set but centers look slightly underbaked.
Press a few extra chips on top of each cookie and cool on the baking sheet for a few minutes before transferring to a rack.
Notes
Chill the dough for best results. For added flair, top each cookie with extra white chocolate chips or sprinkles before baking. Store in an airtight container for up to 1 week.
