For an enhanced pistachio flavor, consider toasting the pistachios lightly before grinding. This will bring out their nutty notes even more. Ensure your butter and eggs are at room temperature for optimal emulsification, leading to a smoother batter and more tender cupcakes. Do not overmix the batter once the flour is added. Overmixing develops the gluten, resulting in a tougher cupcake. For a festive touch, top the cooled cupcakes with a simple vanilla buttercream frosting and sprinkle with chopped pistachios.
