Pistachio Ice Cream

I like pistachios so much that
I buy them five pounds at a time.
This is one of my recipes to make
a very good tasting ice cream,
without using an ice cream machine.
Pistachio ice cream is delicious
with fresh mangos slices on it.

Ingredients:
4 cups heavy cream
2 cups sugar
2 teaspoons almond extract
Green food coloring
2 cups pistachio nuts, chopped

Directions:

Pour heavy cream into a bowl
and whip until slightly stiff.
Add the sugar and almond extract
and beat thoroughly. Add a drop
or two of food coloring (easy does it).
Fold in the pistachio nuts.
Pour mixture into a mold or other
container and place in the freezer.
After 1 hour, stir the cream gently
so that the nuts are well distributed
and don’t sink to the bottom.
Finish freezing for at least
6 hours or overnight.
