Pistachio Pudding Mix Cookies

This is the 'other' recipe that I was talking about.

This was an easy recipe and good too.
Until I brought these to work, no one had heard of pistachio cookies.
I am known at work for bring in some very different cookies.
My co-workers are becoming very knowledgeable about cookies.
:)
That is what I want.  I want to be known for cookies and different ones.

I did not tint the cookies.
What I did do is halfed the dough. 
I made one half with white chocolate chips and the other half with milk chocolate chips. 
Both were good.

Please see below for the website I got this recipe originally from.
