Pista Ice Cream Recipe

Pista Ice Cream is a creamy and tasty dessert made using fresh cream, pistachios and little pista essence. It is usually made at home on weekends or when you want some easy frozen sweet. This ice cream has mild sweetness and rich pista flavor which feels very nice after meals. It is a good option when you want something cold but not too heavy.

Ingredients

  • 1 cup full fat fresh cream
  • ¾ cup condensed milk If you are using store bought then ½ cup is enough
  • 1 teaspoon pista essence
  • 1.5 tablespoon pistachios
  • 2 teaspoon pistachios chopped

Instructions

  • In a dry mixer jar, take pistachios grind to a coarse mixture, set aside. Get ready with all your ingredients.
  •  In a mixing bowl, take fresh cream whisk for 3 seconds or until thick and creamy. Now add condensed milk.
  • Whisk it for even mixing just for 2 seconds. Now add coarse pistachio mixture, then add chopped pistachios.
  • Add pista essence. Mix well using a spatula.
  • Pour into freezer safe container. Freeze it at least for 8 hours.
  • Scoop and serve Pista Ice Cream immediately!

Notes

  • Whipping cream – I whisk the cream only for few seconds until thick. Try not to overbeat or it may turn into butter.
  • Mixing – I mix condensed milk gently so cream does not lose air. Slow mixing works best.
  • Pistachio grind – I grind pistachios coarse, not very fine. This gives better taste and texture.
  • Freezing – I freeze it for minimum 8 hours so it sets properly. Overnight freezing works best.
  • Scooping – I take ice cream out few minutes before scooping, it becomes easy to serve.
