My brain immediately went to Librae Bakery on Cooper Square in Astor Place, famous for their rose-pistachio croissant that perfectly straddles nuttiness and floralness. But with Valentine’s Day coming up, I wanted these cookies to be naturally pink. That’s where incorporating ground-up freeze-dried raspberries into the dough comes into play, imparting lovely fruitiness. So that’s where I ended up—a largely similar recipe to the almond version, with some tweaks for the pistachio fans and the Hallmark-promoted day of love.
