Ingredients:

Serving

2 cups all-purpose flour
1 cup butter, softened
2/3 cup confectioners' sugar
1/2 cup chopped pistachios
1 cup confectioners' sugar
1 tbsp corn syrup
1 tsp grated lemon peel
1/2 tbsp lemon juice
chopped pistachios (to garnish )

Directions:

Mix flour, butter and sugar until well-blended. Stir in nuts until stiff dough forms.
Divide dough in half. Shape each half into a ball. Pat each ball into a 6-inch round shape (about 1/2-inch thick) on a lightly floured surface.
Cut each round into 8 or 16 wedges each. Arrange wedges on a nonstick jelly roll pan and bake for 15 minutes at 350 degrees F.
Set the pan on a cooling rack and allow to cool for 2 minutes. Transfer the cookies directly to the rack to cool completely.
Make glaze: Combine confectioner's sugar, corn syrup and lemon peel. Stir in lemon juice until desired consistency is achieved.
Use a fork to drizzle glaze on shortbread wedges. Sprinkle chopped pistachios onto glazed shortbread.
