Pistachio Rose Water Cookies

I have an unnatural obsession with rose flavored food. So when I saw this recipe in Veganomicon, I knew it was only a matter of time before I got all up into it. I mean, that bottle of rosewater in my fridge isn’t going to use itself, now is it? So since we’re having a cookie exchange with the vegan lunch group this weekend, I thought I’d bake up a mess of them. And they did not disappoint! Although my oven did. After having it all properly pre-heated according to my handy oven thermometer, after I put in the cookies it decided to shoot up 75 degrees. Grrrr. So about 10 of them are a little overdone. Oh well, I guess I’ll just have to keep & eat them. Damnit! Oh, and the dough is really stiff. I can’t even tell you how happy I was to watch my Kitchen Aid mixer cranking away at it. Ha! Better you than me!
