Sugar Cookies with Pistachio and Dried Cherries

Ingredients

• 1 (16-ounce) roll refrigerated sugar cookie dough
• 1/2 cup pistachios, lightly chopped
• 1/2 cup dried cherries
• 1 (11-ounce) bag white chocolate chips

Directions

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.

Open sugar cookie log and press into a rectangle on cutting board. Add pistachios and cherries, press into dough and then re-shape into a log. Slice into 1/4-inch thick rounds. Transfer cookies to a baking sheet.

Bake 7 to 11 minutes, until golden around the edges. Transfer to wire racks to cool completely.

While cookies are baking, melt white chocolate chips in a double boiler or bowl over simmering water.

When cookies are cool, dip bottom half of cookies into melted white chocolate and place on waxed or parchment paper to cool.
