Ingredients
  

1 cup unsalted butter, softened

3/4 cup brown sugar, packed

1/2 cup granulated sugar

1 large egg

1 teaspoon vanilla extract

2 cups all-purpose flour

1/2 teaspoon baking soda

1/2 teaspoon baking powder

1/4 teaspoon salt

1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips

1/2 cup pistachios, shelled and roughly chopped

Instructions
 

Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

    Cream the Butter and Sugars: In a large mixing bowl, cream together the softened butter, brown sugar, and granulated sugar until light and fluffy. This should take about 2-3 minutes.

      Add Egg and Vanilla: Beat in the egg and vanilla extract until fully incorporated.

        Mix Dry Ingredients: In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, baking powder, and salt.

          Combine Mixtures: Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing just until combined. Avoid overmixing.

            Fold in Chocolate Chips and Pistachios: Gently fold in the chocolate chips and chopped pistachios until evenly distributed throughout the dough.

              Scoop Cookies: Using a cookie scoop or tablespoon, drop rounded balls of dough onto the prepared baking sheet, spacing them about 2 inches apart.

                Bake: Bake in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden. The centers may look slightly underbaked, which is perfect for soft cookies.

                  Cool and Enjoy: Allow the cookies to cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely. Enjoy your delicious chocolate chip pistachio cookies!
