I love the cinnamon pecan snowball cookies I made in 2019 that I decided it was time for another version in honor of #ChristmasCookie Week – rose water pistachio!
In case you’re turning up your noses at the floral notes in these cookies before giving them a chance (like my husband), I promise the rose water acts more like a flavor enhancer than a predominant force. I also added ground cardamom and almond extract to really blend it up. No one over-powers the other – they mostly enhance the pistachio flavor.
Just like last time, half of the nuts are coarsely chopped in order to add a crunchy texture to the inside of the cookies. In my opinion it is the best way to make snowball cookies!
