These cookies are a bit too crumbly for my liking. I think I'll try adding an extra egg yolk next time.

I had some trouble finding pistachio pudding mix at my local grocery store. I ended up using vanilla pudding mix instead and the cookies still turned out great.

These cookies are a bit too sweet for my taste. I think I'll try reducing the amount of sugar next time.

I'm not a huge fan of pistachios, but I really enjoyed these cookies. The white chocolate balances out the pistachio flavor perfectly.

These cookies are the perfect combination of sweet and salty. The pistachios give them a nice crunch.
