Description
Or pistachio cookies with marzipan. Recently, we visited for the first time in Italy, specifically in Rome. Of course we wanted to see the Colosseum and the Sistine Chapel and St. Peter's Cathedral, but we wanted to try Italian food. We were not disappointed. We liked everything, and breads and cheeses and various antipasti and something else... on the first day, walking through the narrow streets of Rome, we stumbled upon a small bakery shop, where we of course looked. And there is a real Paradise for the sweet tooth. Our will power was broken, and we bought a variety of sweets, as they say "on trial". We especially liked the biscuits called Pistacchiono. As part of its we, with certainty, identified pistachio and marzipan. The rest of the ingredients left for us an Enigma. After returning home, I decided to bake something. But, as usual, had to improvise on the move and, as a result, I did it - here is a delicious cookie, with a delicate aroma of almonds and pistachios. I hope You enjoy...

Cooking
We need the ingredients. The flour and baking powder, I decided to add later, so the photo is not.
The pistachios I used dried, but not salted.
Pistachios remove the shell and the third part to postpone for decoration.
The rest of the pistachios to grind, I did it in blender.
We have made this pistachio flour.
For the pistachio flour, add the marzipan, sugar and proteins. Mix everything together until smooth. Better to do it the immersion blender, but since my has died, I have done the same. But it's such a hassle that probably would have been easier to mix by hand.
Here is a lot of fun green color we have.
At this stage I decided to add the flour and baking powder, as the mass turned out watery and form any information from her was not possible. For those who want to try to bake this cookies without flour, I suggest to reduce the amount of protein in 2 times.
The dough was pretty thick and sticky. I formed these are "balls", with the help of a teaspoon, and decorated them with pistachios. For jigging you can also use piping bag or simple plastic with a cut tip. A cookie does not spread, so they can be deposited even closer to each other. Bake for 10-12 minutes in the oven at 160-180°C.
And here in the context, more precisely in "the rift".
And thank you for your attention.
