thought I would add my comment from the other Christmas Shortbread thread here as well :) I'm not sure if we are able to combine the two threads so thought I would just put the information on both threads  :D

I find it easier and more uniform to roll the dough out on my bread mat and cut the cookies out with the MC    Steaming the pistachios first (think it is in one of the reviews that JD linked to) still makes it easier to cut them out with the MC as well.

Thanks for the tip.

I already refrigerated the dough for a few hours before attempting to cut it but it was still pretty difficult, especially when the knife hit a piece of pistachio, so I had some pieces thicker than others.

I've already been asked to make another batch so will try rolling it out and see how I go.
