Pistachio Christmas Ribbon Bars image

I've been making these for over 20 years. A must have on my cookie platter every Christmas for they're a family favorite (and great any time of year). Very easy to make, colorful and tasty. People will think you've work very hard in the kitchen (we'll never tell). This recipe can easily be doubled (which I always do), and baked cookies freeze very well.

Number Of Ingredients 6

1/2 lb butter (I use butter) or 1/2 lb margarine (I use butter)

Steps:

  • Combine butter, sugar and egg; beat until thoroughly blended. Stir in flour until incorporated. Add chopped pistachios.
