Name: Cardamom Pistachio Chocolate Chip Ice Cream
Prep time: 15 min
Cook time: 30 min
Total time: 45 min
Yield: 4 servings
Ingredients: 1 1/2 cups shelled, unsalted pistachios; Filtered water to cover, for soaking; 1 3.5 oz. can coconut milk; 1/4 cup plus 2 tablespoons sugar; 1/4 cup honey (or agave nectar if you are vegan); 2 tablespoons light corn syrup; 3/4 teaspoon ground cardamom; 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract; 2 teaspoons cognac (optional); 1/2 cup chopped dark chocolate or dark chocolate chips

Servings: persons

1 1/2 cups shelled, unsalted pistachios
Filtered water to cover, for soaking
1 3.5 oz. can coconut milk
1/4 cup plus 2 tablespoons sugar
1/4 cup honey (or agave nectar if you are vegan)
2 tablespoons light corn syrup
3/4 teaspoon ground cardamom
1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
2 teaspoons cognac (optional)
1/2 cup chopped dark chocolate or dark chocolate chips

1
Soak pistachios in filtered water overnight. Drain and rinse. Optional: peel off the dark skins to get a better color and texture. This is a tedious step, and I don't think the end product would suffer too much if you skipped it.
2
Place the soaked pistachios and coconut milk in blender; process until smooth (taking breaks to scrape down the sides and blend again if you have a less-than-high-powered blender like mine).
3
Bring the pistachio milk, sugar, honey and corn syrup to a simmer in saucepan over medium heat. Remove from heat, stir in cardamom, vanilla extract, and cognac and set aside to cool. Strain through a sieve.
4
Cover and chill mixture in refrigerator for 2-3 hours or overnight.
5
Process ice cream as per manufacturer's instructions. In the last minute of processing, add in chocolate. Cover and freeze.
