Instructions

  1. Step 1

    Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Line an 8x8 inch baking pan with parchment paper.

  2. Step 2

    Melt the 0.5 cup butter in a microwave or saucepan. Stir in the 1 cup sugar and 2 eggs until smooth.

  3. Step 3

    Add the 0.5 cup cocoa powder and 0.5 cup flour; mix until just combined. Fold in 0.25 cup of the pistachios.

  4. Step 4

    Pour batter into the pan, sprinkle the remaining 0.25 cup pistachios on top. Bake until a toothpick comes out with moist crumbs, about 20-25 minutes.

    Let cool completely in the pan before cutting into squares.
