- Cream the butter til it looks almost white. Add in the sugar gradually and beat til the mix is very smooth and very creamy.
- Add in the flour gradually till a dough is formed, then knead by hand as flour is added. The dough remains very soft. If it is too soft to handle, add in just a bit more flour.
- Roll in pcs about 5 inches long and 1/2 inch thick. Press ends together to make bracelets.
- Place on ungreased baking sheets. Sprinkle with the minced pistachio nuts.
- Bake for about 25 min. Watch carefully. They shouldn't brown at all.
- Even slight browning spoils the characteristic taste.
