Do you use whole cashews? Or do you have to crush them up? Can't wait to try this recipe!!

Sounds good! Gonna try these!

We had a lady in the ward that made these WONDERFUL pistachio cookies! She would NEVER EVER share the recipe, not with anyone! WE felt pleased when we got a plate, but one day she moved and now we never get them.
Now I just feel like maybe she could have shared it. It would have been way nice so everytime anyone brought them or shared them we would have remembered her.

Good for you for sharing!!!

sounds like my dad. whenever you make a treat for him, he takes it into his secret lair in the basement so that he doesnt have to share. guess i know where he learned to hoard his food!!

Those totally sound delicious.

Random ? Have you tried Browned butter on popcorn. It is WAY better than just melting the butter, which makes my popcorn soggy. By the way, I check your blog all the time. You are so creative.

Yum! That sounds awesome! And do you just keep the cashews whole/halved? Or do you crush them a bit more?

Browning butter = You melt it in a sauce pan or frying pan or whatever. The temperature needs to be just hot enough that it bubbles. Once it's melted, you let it keep bubbling 'til it turns brown. As soon as it's brown, you take it off the heat immediately. It'll get REALLY foamy.

There's also a moment when you're making the frosting that you think you might have just ruined the whole thing. Push through that moment, and you'll be good.

2 thinkgs……1: These look and sounds FANTASTIC, I am making them TODAY! and 2: When you say like a carmel cashew shake, do you mean like the one at Nielson's Frozen Custard or just like a regular old carmel cashew shake??? Cause the one at Nielson's is TOO DIE for, so if the cookie is anything like it, i'm in BIG trouble!!
