Last week I was faced with a rather tough decision. The sensible part of me knew I HAD to sit down and finally do that pesky tax return. The overexcited, foodie part of me knew I just HAD to drop everything and make these pistachio bailey shortbread cookies with a chocolate baileys glaze all completed with some pistachio dust. Guess which part won?
I mean, it is Baileys pistachio shortbread cookies with a chocolate Baileys glaze. Do I need to say any more. They are buttery, crumbly, the right amount of sweet, with bites of pistachio and a baileys flavour in every little mouthful. These are going to be one of my go to treats for Christmas, Valentine’s Day and many other celebrations.
You know what? I think I will just make myself another batch of these shortbread cookies along some warming chai tea, lock myself away for a couple of hours, loose myself in excel spread sheets, invoices and get a handle on that tax return. Happy almost Christmas. For other recipes with Baileys pleace check out my baked Bailey doughnuts with a Baileys glaze, Baileys fudge from Foodie Quine, Baileys salted caramel and fudge cream pie from Munchies and Munchkins, Baileys marbled chocolate ice cream from Tin and Thyme and Oreo and Caramel Cheesecake from Tinned Tomatoes.
