Make a 2-intrigued chocolate ganache and whirl it with a creamy, salty-sweet pistachio-ice cream base. After 8 hours freezing it is ready to eat.

I often say that pistachios are an underestimated taste in the dessert world. The nuts themselves are certainly delicious like a snack, but even better if they are in the spotlight in a cute delicacies such as pistachio cakes or pistachios in the spotlight! I mean, have you tried these pistachios cupcakes with strawberry butter cream?
But my preferred way of enjoying pistachio taste in the summer months is definitely in ice. If the weather warms up and I need a break from the oven (and frankly, my oven probably needs a break from me!), I make pistachio ice cream. And for reasons that do not require an explanation, I recorded chocolate. Apparently!
I don’t have an ice machine, but thanks to this wonderful no-churn method, this is not a problem. Have you ever tried? It is the same with which we do blueberry crumble ice cream.

3 parts of chocolate vertebral pistachios ice cream
- Chocolate -ganache: Only 2 ingredients: heavy cream and chocolate.
- Pistachien -ice base: In addition to roasted pistachios, you need heavy cream, sweetened condensed milk (the magical ingredient for no-churn ice) as well as vanilla and almond extracts.
- Add-ins: Holded pistachios and chocolate chips (optional for additional texture)

First make the 2-intra-intensive chocolate ganache
I will not respond to many details on how to make the ganache because I have a complete chocolate ganache -tutorial for you. You only need 2 ingredients: chocolate and warm heavy cream.
You can chop a chocolate baking bar or if you have high -quality chocolate chips (like Guittard Brand or this imagination Belgian chocolate chips) that also work here. I usually use half -sweet chocolate, but you can use dark or milk chocolate, whatever you prefer.


As soon as your ganache is smooth, put it aside at room temperature to thicken while …
Pistachien -ice base
Use a kitchen machine to grind shells (from the bowl), roasted pistachios into fine little crumbs. This is how we also start pistachios. After grinding, they are looking for a powdery, cröcken consistency. Don’t go away from the food processor, otherwise you could have pistachio butter!


Can I use salted or raw pistachios? Yes, salted pistachios are great here and will give a beautiful sweet/salty taste. If you cannot find roasted pistachios, you can use RAW or take the step in the oven (simply sprinkle them on a baking sheet and burst into an oven of 300 ° F in a 149 ° C) oven before grinding them, for this taste of the roast toasty. Let cool completely before grinding.
This ice base comes from the popular Martha Stewart No-churn methodAnd it’s just 1 can of sweetened condensed milk and 2 cups (1 pint) heavy cream. The sweetened condensed milk gives a silky creamy texture and sweetness.
Start with the heavy cream in stiff peaks, a little stiffer than when we make homemade whipped cream as follows:


Add into the ground pistachios, sweetened condensed milk as well as vanilla and almond extracts. (By the way, did you know that pistachio ice cream is almost always seasoned with almond extract?
At low speed (or fold with a silicone spatula) until everything is combined, as follows:


Do I add food coloring? You don’t have to. Pistachie ice cream is a very pale green tone that actually looks a bit yellow. The use of roasted pistachios can also create a darker color. If you want a more lively green tone, add a small or 2 of 2 from Green gel food coloring. (I used leaf green.)
Let us assemble
Spoon and spread about half of the ice mixture into a loaf pan or another deep bowl/pan. Super flexible recipe here; Use the deep pan you have as long as it is freezer. I usually use a loaf pan – it works great.
Spoon the thick chocolate ganache over the ice layer.
Spoon and distribute the rest of the ice mix over the ganache, then exceed with the rest of the ganache. Use a knife to twist everything together:


For additional texture, sprinkle some chopped chocolate and pistachios over it.


Cover and freeze for at least 6 hours; However, I think that the ice has the best texture when it is frozen for about 8 hours or even overnight.
That’s it. Homemade ice cream has never been easier!
If you have a heavy cream left, make a fresh whipped cream or a hot fudge sauce for above!

- Make the chocolate ganache: Place the chocolate chips in a medium -heated bowl. Heat the cream in a small saucepan over medium heat until it simmer gently. (Don’t let it cook quickly – that’s too hot!) Pour over chocolate and let it sit for 2 to 3 minutes to carefully soften the chocolate.
- With a metal spoon or a small silicone spatula, very slowly until it is completely combined and the chocolate is melted. If it doesn’t melt, they don’t microwave. See troubleshooting chocolate ganache in this post how to make chocolategan fan. Put the ganache at a slightly cool at room temperature and thicken as you produce the pistachio ice base.

Add the pistachios, the sweetened condensed milk, the vanilla extract, the almond extract and the green gel food coloring (if used) and beat at low speed until you are combined.
- Spoon/distribute the ice mixture about half (only eyeball) into a deep freezer protection container or a deep bowl. I suggest a 9 × 5-inch loib pan. Let the spoons of about half of the chocolate ganache fall over it. Spoon/spreading the remaining ice mixture on the top, followed by the remaining ganache. With a knife the ganache and the ice cream together carefully. Top with chopped pistachios and chocolate chips, if desired. Cover and freeze for at least 8 hours and up to 2 weeks.

Notes
- Instructions in advance result: Prepare the ice cream up to 2 weeks and freeze it. The chocolate ganache can be prepared 1 day in advance. Cover and store in the refrigerator until it can be used in step 3. After being in the fridge, the ganache is too thick to turn it into the ice. So warm it up before it is a smooth, extinguished/pourable consistency.

- Chocolate for the ganache: If you don’t have high -quality chocolate chips (like Guittard Brand or this Belgian chocolate chips), You can use a bar with baking chocolate such as baker or ghirardelli brands, which are usually available in bars with 4 -unzen (113 g). You need 90 g of finely chopped chocolate for the ganache, about 3/4 of the bar. Usually I use half-sweet chocolate, but you can use dark or milk chocolate-ICE CREAM maker choice!
- Pistachios: If your pistachios are not salted, add a small pinch of fine sea salt during processing. This is optional, but the sweet/salty taste in the ice is fantastic. If your pistachios are not roasted, sprinkle them on a baking sheet and roast them in a 149 ° C -oven for 8 minutes. Let cool completely before grinding.
- Optional gel food coloring: I used 2 drops of for the ice cream shown Americolor Leaf Green.
