Yield: Makes about 4 dozen cookies
Serve these cookies for dessert as an elegant accompaniment to ice cream. Be sure to follow the instructions and bake them on greased foil.
Ingredients:
1/2
cup (1 stick) butter

1/3
cup light corn syrup

2
tablespoons frozen orange juice concentrate, thawed

1
tablespoon grated orange peel

2/3
cup packed dark brown sugar

1
cup all-purpose flour

1/2
cup chopped pistachio nuts

1
cup (6 ounces) semisweet chocolate chips



Preparation:
1.
Preheat oven to 375°F. Line cookie sheets with foil; lightly grease foil. Combine butter, corn syrup, orange concentrate, orange peel and sugar in medium saucepan. Bring to a boil over medium heat, stirring constantly. Remove from heat; gradually stir in flour and nuts. Cool completely. Stir in chocolate chips. Drop batter by teaspoonfuls 3 inches apart onto prepared cookie sheets. Bake 8 to 10 minutes or until golden and lacy. (Cookies are soft when hot, but become crispy as they cool.) Cool completely on foil, then peel foil from cookies.
