1Prepare the Dough: In a large bowl, beat the softened butter and granulated sugar together until light and fluffy. Add the vanilla extract and mix well. Gradually mix in the all-purpose flour, almond flour, ground pistachios, and salt. Stir until a soft dough forms. Wrap the dough in plastic wrap and refrigerate for 30 minutes to chill.
2Prepare the Ricotta Filling: Combine ricotta cheese, honey, and lemon zest in a separate bowl. Mix well.
3Assemble the Bites: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Roll out the chilled dough and use a cookie cutter or knife to cut out small circles. Place a spoonful of ricotta filling in the center of each circle. Fold the dough over to form a half-moon shape, pinching the edges to seal.
4Bake: Place the assembled bites on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Bake for 15-20 minutes, or until golden brown.
5Finish: Let cool slightly before topping with roughly chopped pistachios and a drizzle of honey. Serve and enjoy!
