Rosewater Pistachio Ice Cream

I look forward to this dessert every time we eat dinner at my Aunt Eva’s house. It’s funny – she always says she is not a dessert person and that she does not make dessert. But let me tell you, this ice cream combo hits the mark and throws that statement out the window. French vanilla ice cream is mixed with the sweet floral undertones of rosewater and interspersed with chopped pistachio to give a slightly salty and earthy crunch. With how delicious it tastes she had me fooled with how easy it is to make. Of course you can make your own ice cream – but store bought French vanilla ice cream is a time saver and acts as the perfect base. Its fun to mold it into any shape you like – you can use a bunt pan, a loaf pan – go wild! Here I used a round bowl to keep it simple. As the heat soars, all I crave is ice cream, and this really is my go to summer treat! Thank you Auntie Eva for always keeping it cool and sweet!
