INSTRUCTIONS
Sift together the flour, baking soda and salt. Set aside. In a bowl,
cream the butter and sugar until light and fluffy. Beat in the egg,
mixing until combined. Add lemon rind, lemon juice and lemon basil.
Stir in the dry ingredients, blending thoroughly. Wrap and chill the
dough for 1 hour or until firm. Preheat oven to 350 F. Shape the
dough into 1" balls. Combine pistachio nuts with 3 tb. sugar. Roll
the balls of dough into the mixture until coated. Place 2" apart on
ungreased baking sheets. Press cookies down with the palm of hand to
flatten them slightly. Bake 10 to 12 minutes or until golden.
Transfer to racks to cool. Yield: About 5 dozen. Recipe developed by
