I was originally aiming for zesty pistachio white chocolate chip cookies but the zest just wasn’t dominating enough to be worthy of the first word, lol. When you look at these and proceed to devour one, you will be thinking of how beautiful they look, i just love the combination of the pistachios and white chocolate together. Spring is just 2 weeks away here in Australia and these beauties scream spring! Woohoo! Oh how I’m going to be enjoying some warm weather coming our way soon.

I adapted this recipe from my Chocolate Oat Cookies because i love to use trustworthy gluten free cookie recipes because why fix it if it ain’t broke? Well what i mean is that you can alter a previous recipe using the same base elements but switch it up with different flavours and ingredients to create a brand new yummy recipe. I just realised that this recipe doesn’t contain dark chocolate! Record this moment guys, this is rare for me. I did however still use white chocolate, you can’t tear me away from all the chocolate now!
