Luxurious Pistachio Halva Ice Cream With The Ninja Creami (1)

Luxurious Pistachio Halva Ice Cream With The Ninja Creami

Amber Bondar
This easy Ninja Creami recipe makes a intensely flavored pistachio ice cream with pistachio halva. Real bits of nuttiness create a great texture in the rich and luxurious ice cream. The base has been flavored with a pistachio emulsion for the deepest of flavors you can enjoy this summer. So much better than store-bought!

Equipment

  • 1 Ninja Creami Pint With Lid
  • 1 Whisk
  • 1 measuring cup
  • 1 Small Microwavable Dish
  • 1 Teaspoon
  • mixing bowl
  • Freezer

Ingredients
  

  • 2 Tbsp Cream Cheese Softened
  • ½ Cup White Sugar
  • 1½ Tsp Pistachio Emulsion
  • 1 Cup Heavy Cream 35% Whipping Cream
  • 1½ Cup Homogenized Milk 3.25% Milk
  • ¼ Cup Crumbled Pistachio Halva

Instructions
 

  • In a microwaveable bowl soften the cream cheese for ten seconds. (If not using microwave bring cream cheese to room temperature to make it softer to work with.)
  • Add the softened cream cheese to mixing bowl.
  • Measure the white sugar and mix well.
  • Add the heavy cream and whisk continually. The sugar needs to dissolve in the cream.
  • Measure and add the homogenized milk whisking continually.
  • Add in the pistachio emulsion mixing well.
  • Continue to whisk until the sugar is fully dissolved.
  • Pour the ice cream base into the Ninja® CREAMi® pint being careful to not go over the max fill line.
  • Place the lid on the pint and freeze level in the deep freeze for 24hrs.
  • After 24 hrs remove from the freezer and assemble in the Ninja® CREAMi® machine as instructed in manual.
  • Set to ice cream blend full. The machine will churn the ice cream.
  • When finished remove the pint and return to freezer to harden up as it is a softer ice cream. Leave in fridge for two more hours.
  • Remove from freezer and take lid off.
  • Dig out the center of the ice cream to a four cm or one-and-a-half-inch wide hole by 8 cm deep or two inches.
  • Add into the hole ¼ cup crumbled pistachio halva.
  • Place lid back on the pint and return to the ice cream machine as instructed.
  • Set the ice cream setting to mix-in and let the machine work its magic!
  • Remove churned ice cream and enjoy.
  • Store unused portions in the freezer for up to two weeks. Placing parchment or plastic wrap over the top before replacing the lid will help to prevent crystallization.
