Ingredients

Scale

Pistachio Shaved Ice Base:

  • 1 cup milk (whole or condensed)
  • 1/2 cup heavy cream
  • 3 tbsp pistachio paste or pistachio butter
  • 2 tbsp sugar (adjust to taste)
  • 1/4 tsp vanilla extract
  • Optional: 2 tbsp crushed roasted pistachios

Pistachio Ice Cream Cubes:

  • Store-bought pistachio ice cream

Whipped Cream:

  • 1 cup heavy whipping cream
  • 2 tbsp powdered sugar
  • 1/2 tsp vanilla extract

Toppings:

  • 1 Magnum chocolate-coated ice cream bar
  • Freeze-dried figs or strawberries, halved
  • Crushed pistachios or freeze-dried raspberries
  • Small mint or herb leaves for garnish
  • Optional: edible gold dust or chocolate syrup

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Shaved Ice: Blend milk, cream, pistachio paste, sugar, and vanilla until smooth. Pour into a shallow metal tray and freeze until solid (about 4 hours). Once frozen, shave the ice using a fork or ice shaver.
  2. Layer the Bowl: Place shaved ice into a large serving bowl. Add pistachio ice cream cubes around the edges for extra creaminess and texture.
  3. Top with Whipped Cream: Pipe or spoon whipped cream in the center.
  4. Add Toppings: Place halved figs or freeze-dried berries on the whipped cream. Stick a Magnum bar on top at an angle. Sprinkle with crushed pistachios or raspberry bits. Garnish with a few mint or herb leaves.

Notes

  • For a deeper green color, add a drop of matcha or natural green food coloring to the pistachio base.
  • You can make this recipe vegan by using coconut milk and dairy-free ice cream.
