Mango-Pistachio Ice Cream Pie Recipe
This impressive dessert is fantastic for parties, because it can be prepared entirely in advance. Garnish each plate with a slice of kiwi for an even more gorgeous combination of colors.
Ingredients
| 1 | recipe | Vanilla Wafer-Almond Crust, cooled |
| 1 | recipe | Almond Ice Cream ** |
| 1 | cup | raw, blanched Pistachio nuts, chopped* |
| 1 | recipe | Mango Sauce |
| *Most stores only carry pre-salted pistachios, so I blanch them to remove the salt and inner skins.**Substitute best quality, store bought ice cream like Pistachio Pistachioby Ben and Jerry's. |
Directions
1. Pre-make and cool the crust.
