Follow The Directions

01

Step

In a saucepan, combine sugar and milk. Bring to a simmer over medium-high heat, stirring until sugar dissolves. Simmer gently for 3 minutes. (3 minutes)

02

Step

Remove from heat and pour the milk syrup into a bowl. Let cool to room temperature. (30 minutes)

03

Step

Stir in pistachio butter, almond extract, vanilla extract, and green food coloring (if using). Whisk until smooth, then cover and refrigerate until completely chilled. (2 hours)

04

Step

In a large mixing bowl, whip the cold heavy cream until soft peaks form. (5-7 minutes)

05

Step

Gently fold in half of the chilled pistachio mixture until just combined. Repeat with the remaining pistachio mixture. (2-3 minutes)

06

Step

Transfer the ice cream base to a freezer-safe container. Sprinkle half of the pistachios and chocolate chips over the top, then gently swirl them into the mixture with a fork. Scatter the remaining pistachios and chocolate chips evenly over the surface. (5 minutes)

07

Step

Cover the ice cream with plastic wrap, pressing it directly onto the surface. Secure the lid and freeze for at least 4 hours, or preferably overnight, until solid. (4+ hours)

08

Step

Scoop and serve, garnishing with extra chopped pistachios or grated dark chocolate for an elegant touch.

For the best texture, ensure all ingredients and equipment are thoroughly chilled before starting. A metal bowl placed in the freezer for 30 minutes before whipping the cream can significantly improve its volume and stability.
Feel free to experiment with different types of chocolate chips or nuts. White chocolate or macadamia nuts would also be delicious additions.
If you don't have pistachio butter, you can make your own by blending roasted pistachios in a food processor until smooth. Add a touch of oil if needed to achieve a creamy consistency.
