Pistachio Dessert

Recipe #122260 | 4¼ hours | 4 hours prep | add private note

When I first fixed dinner for my father in law, he put this in his mouth and just sit there, I had no idea, I thought he wanted to spit it out, but once he swallowed it, he said he loved it and just wanted to hold it in his mouth. This was his very favorite, and everyone loves this. The cream cheese layer is sometimes hard to spread, I use the back of a large spoon and run cold water over it. Prep time includes 4 hours in the fridge before serving.

    Refreshing and delicious, but I would say make a couple of hours ahead of time, this needs a bit of time to firm up slightly. I made mine in an 11 x 7-inch pan and that worked fine. Wonderful dessert Mel! Kitten

    A very good light, refreshing dessert. My mother makes a similar dish with chocolate pudding instead of pistachio. The only change I would make is to use a smaller pan or double the recipe. There just didn't seem to be enough crust or filling to spread across a 9x13 pan. But, it tasted great! Thanks for the recipe.
