Preheat the oven 180C/Fan 160C/Gas Mark 4. Lightly grease a baking tray. Sift the flour, baking powder and a pinch of salt into a bowl. Add sugar, pistachio nuts, beaten eggs and vanilla essence. Mix together with a fork to make a soft, sticky dough. Divide the mixture in half. With well floured hands, shape into 2 (8inch) sausages. Place on the baking tray well spaced apart. Bake for 20 mins until pale golden and just firm. Cool for 10 mins. Transfer to a chopping board; cut diagonally into 2cm thick slices. Place on baking tray, laying cut side down in a single layer. Return to the oven for 8-10 mins until the edges begin to turn golden brown. Cool on a wire rack.
