We have made several prior recipes in our Ninja Creami Deluxe and really enjoyed them! Jumping on the Dubai pistachio chocolate trend, we wanted to try out our own version in the Creami.

We’re using Elmhurst Pistachio Barista blended with rice as the base because we wanted to make it easy for the first try on our own recipe. We filled the Creami to the scoopable max fill line, and now we’ve put it in the freezer to freeze for 24 hours.

The process

First, we ran it on the ice cream setting to turn it from the frozen block into something better. Next, we used the Mix-In setting to add whole pistachios and chocolate chips.

The Results

It wasn’t ice cream, but for the amount of effort, it was quite delicious! I think that next time we’ll probably add more pistachio flavoring, since there was a lot of rice flavor and not enough pistachio for our taste.

Next time I’ll have to remember to get a picture of the results in a dish, but just the half-empty container. Oops!
