Ingredients

  • 1+1/4 cup flour
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon pure vanilla bean paste
  • 7 tablespoons cold unsalted butter cut into pieces
  • 1/2 cup cream cheese
  • 1/2 cup chopped raw pistachio nuts
  • 1 small lemon
  • 1/2 cup white granulated sugar
  • 6 tablespoons raspberry jam divided

Instructions

  1. Whisk together the flour and salt.
  2. Add the cold butter pieces and vanilla bean paste. Knead to combine.
  3. Add the cream cheese and knead to form a smooth dough.
  4. Halve the dough. Wrap each section in plastic cling film and chill overnight.
  5. Zest and juice the lemon.
  6. Reserve 3 tablespoons of the chopped pistachios. Place the rest in a blender or food processor and grind them to dust.
  7. Mix the 3 tablespoons of chopped pistachios, ground pistachios, zest, juice, and sugar. Divide in half.
  8. Preheat the oven to 350F.
  9. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  10. Remove one of the dough packages from the refrigerator.
  11. Roll the dough out between plastic wrap on the top and bottom into a 10-inch circle.
  12. Spread 3 tablespoons of the raspberry jam evenly over the dough circle, then spread half the pistachio/sugar mixture over the jam.
  13. Use a pizza cutter to divide the dough into 8 pieces, like a pizza.
  14. Working with one slice at a time, roll up the piece from the pointed side. Place on the prepared baking sheet.
  15. Bake for 20 minutes, then transfer to a baking rack.
  16. Repeat the steps above with the other half of the dough.
  17. Let cool before plating and serving.
