Description
Indulge in the deliciously rich and creamy Chocolate Swirl Pistachio Ice Cream, featuring a delightful chocolate ganache swirl and crunchy pistachios for the perfect summer treat.
Ingredients
6 Tablespoons heavy cream
1/2 cup quality chocolate chips
1 and 1/4 cups shelled roasted pistachios
2 cups heavy cream
14-ounce can full-fat sweetened condensed milk
1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
1/4 teaspoon almond extract
tiny drop green gel food coloring
2 Tablespoons roughly chopped pistachios
2 Tablespoons roughly chopped chocolate chips
Instructions
- In a small saucepan over low heat, combine 6 tablespoons of heavy cream and the chocolate chips. Stir until completely melted and smooth, then remove from heat and set aside to cool slightly.
- In a mixing bowl, combine the 2 cups of cold heavy cream, sweetened condensed milk, vanilla extract, almond extract, and optional green gel food coloring. Beat with a mixer until well blended and slightly thickened.
- Fold in the 1 and 1/4 cups of pistachios gently until evenly distributed.
- Pour half of the ice cream mixture into a freezer-safe container. Drizzle half of the chocolate ganache over the top, then use a knife to swirl it in. Repeat with the remaining ice cream mixture and chocolate ganache.
- Cover the container and freeze for at least 4 hours or until completely firm.
- Before serving, sprinkle with chopped pistachios and chocolate chips for an extra crunch!
Notes
For a more intense green color, adjust the food coloring as desired. Ensure the ice cream is well-chilled before serving for the best texture.
