240 gr AP flour
5 gr baking soda
5 gr ginger powder
5 gr cloves powder
5 gr cinnamon powder
7 gr Atlantic sea salt
Step 2
In a stand mixer bowl- beat the butter, brown and white sugar until smooth.
180 gr soft butter
115 gr brown sugar
100 gr white sugar
Step 3
Add the dates honey, egg and vanilla paste, and beat until smooth. Scrape the sides of the bowl and keep beating (making sure the whole batter is homogenous).
85 ml dates honey (can be replaced with molasses)
1 free range egg
5 gr vanilla paste
Step 4
Add the dry ingredients and mix just until combined.
Step 5
Add pistachios and mix for 1 min just until incorporated.
120 gr pistachios
Step 6
Transfer the batter to a bowl, cover with a plastic wrap, and place in the fridge for an hour (up to 3 days). If your cookie dough got very hard, take out from the fridge an hour before baking.
Step 7
We are ready to bake- preheat the oven to 350F or 180C.
Step 8
Make the coating mix by simply mix sugar, cinnamon and cardamom together.
100 gr white sugar
5 gr cinnamon powder
5 gr cardamom powder (optional)
Step 9
Using a cookie scooper, scoop a ball of the cookie dough and round it in your hands.
Step 10
Roll the cookie ball in the sugar mix and place on a baking sheet with a parchment paper. Keep a space of 5cm between one cookie to another.
Step 11
Bake the cookies for 10-11 min. The edges of the cookie will be crispy while the center still soft.
Step 12
Take the cookies out of the oven and immediately shape them into a perfect round shape: place a a bowl or a glass over the cookies (when still warm), do a little swirl and voilà, perfectly round cookies.
Step 13
Let them chill for 5 min on the baking tray, then gently transfer them to a rack.
Step 14
YASSS!
