Directions
For cookies, whisk together flour, baking powder and salt in a medium bowl; set aside.
Beat butter, ¼ cup granulated sugar, brown sugar, honey and lemon extract with an electric mixer on high for 2 to 3 minutes or until light and fluffy. Gradually beat in flour mixture on medium-low for 2 to 3 minutes or just until combined. Beat in white chocolate, ¼ cup pistachios and 1 Tbsp. lemon zest. Beat in water, 1 Tbsp. at a time, until dough comes together to form a ball.
Roll dough on a lightly floured large sheet of parchment paper to ¼-in. thickness. Transfer dough on parchment paper to a large baking sheet or cutting board. Cover dough with another sheet of parchment paper; refrigerate for 30 minutes.
Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Cut chilled dough into 16 (2¾-in.) squares using a cookie cutter. Transfer cutouts to an ungreased cookie sheet using a wide metal spatula, placing cutouts ½ in. apart. Garnish tops of cutouts with additional granulated sugar, pistachios and lemon zest, if desired.
Bake for 10 to 12 minutes or until edges are light golden brown. Transfer cookies to wire racks to cool completely.
To assemble sandwiches, use paper edges to lift ice cream out of pan. Cut ice cream into 8 (2¾-in.) squares using a cookie cutter that is at least 1 in. high. Sandwich 1 ice cream square between 2 cookies; gently press down. Cover and freeze until serving or up to 1 week.
