- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 3 tablespoons finely chopped pistachios
Instructions

Weigh or lightly spoon flour into dry measuring cups; level with a knife. Gradually add flour and salt to butter mixture, beating just until combined. Divide dough into 2 equal portions. Shape each portion into a 6-inch log. Wrap logs individually in plastic wrap; refrigerate 12 to 24 hours.
