Prepare the Pistachios:
Begin by placing the pistachios in a blender or food processor. Pulse to crush them into a coarse mixture. Set this aside for later use. -
-
Whip the Cream:
In a mixing bowl, take the fresh cream. Using an electric hand blender or stand mixer, whip the cream on high speed for about 3 minutes, until it thickens and forms soft peaks. -
Add Condensed Milk:
Pour in the condensed milk into the whipped cream. Whip again for another 30 seconds to ensure that both the cream and condensed milk are evenly blended. -
Flavor the Ice Cream:
Stir in the pistachio extract and whip the mixture for another 30 seconds to evenly distribute the flavor. -
Incorporate Pistachios:
Gently fold the crushed pistachios into the mixture, making sure they are well-distributed without deflating the whipped cream. -
Freeze the Ice Cream:
Transfer the ice cream mixture into a freezer-safe bowl. Spread it out evenly, cover, and freeze for at least 8 hours, or preferably overnight, to allow it to set completely. -
Serve and Enjoy:
Once the ice cream has set, scoop it into bowls or cones. For an extra touch, garnish with additional crushed pistachios. This Simple & Luscious Pista Ice Cream is the perfect party dessert and pairs wonderfully with other treats like Shrewsbury Cookies (butter cookies) or an Aloo Tikki Burger.
Enjoy this creamy, nutty ice cream as a refreshing treat for any occasion!
