- Dust your working surface with flour and roll out the dough until it is about ½" an thick.
- Preheat the oven to 340 °F (170 °C).
- Cut out 3" circles using a cookie cutter. Add the filling to a piping bag and squeeze a little right in the center of each circle.
- Sprinkle some pistachio pieces on top, close the dough as shown in the video, tighten the edges and leave a very small opening (the dough will expand while baking so it is important to tighten well).

- Remove from the oven and let the cookies cool off for 10 minutes.
- Sprinkle with powdered sugar and drizzle some leftover filling on top.
