Ingredients

Instructions

  • Start by placing the heavy whipping cream in a large mixing bowl. Using your electric mixer, beat the whipping cream for about 4-6 minutes or until stiff peaks form.
  • If you want to add sweetness to your ice cream, gently stir the sweetened condensed milk into the whipping cream.  This step is entirely optional, but I strongly suggest doing it, especially if you’re a sweet tooth like me. 
  • Next, gently stir in the pistachio pudding mix until no dry patches remain, being careful not to overmix. Mix thoroughly to ensure that all the ingredients are fully incorporated to achieve the best flavor. 
  • Then, stir in the crushed pistachios to add more flavor and texture to your ice cream. Mix everything thoroughly so that the pistachio nuts are evenly distributed throughout the ice cream. Once you’re done mixing, fold the mixture into a clean loaf pan using a silicone spatula and spread it evenly. 
  • Finally, pop the ice cream in the freezer and freeze it for 3 hours or overnight to let it set. Just like that, you can scoop away! Enjoy.
