Instructions

Cream the butter and powdered sugar together in a large mixing bowl until light and fluffy.
Incorporate the vanilla extract.
Mix in the flour gradually until just combined.
Fold in the pistachios, if using.
Wrap the dough in plastic wrap after shaping it into a ball.
Chill for at least 30 minutes in the refrigerator.
Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C) and prepare a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Roll out the chilled dough to a thickness of 1/4-inch and cut out the cookies with a cookie cutter.
Bake the cookies for 12-15 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden, on the prepared baking sheet.
Allow the cookies to cool for 5 minutes on the baking sheet before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
