Step-by-step instruction without your screen going to sleep

  • 1 tablespoon cream cheese, softened
  • 1/3 cup granulated sugar
  • 1 teaspoon almond extract
  • 3/4 cup heavy cream
  • 1 cup whole milk
  • green food coloring (optional)
  • 1/4 cup pistachios (shells removed, chopped)

Utensils

  • Microwave-Safe Bowl
  • Whisk
  • Step 1

    In a large microwave-safe bowl, add the cream cheese and microwave for 10 seconds. Add the sugar, and almond extract and with a whisk or rubber spatula, combine until the mixture looks like frosting, about 60 seconds.

  • Step 2

    Slowly mix in the heavy cream, milk, and OPTIONAL food coloring until fully combined and sugar is dissolved.

  • Step 3

    Pour base into an empty CREAMi™ Pint. Place storage lid on pint and freeze for 24 hours.

  • Step 4

    Remove pint from freezer and remove lid from pint. Place pint in outer bowl, install Creamerizer™ Paddle onto outer bowl lid, and lock the lid assembly on the outer bowl. Place bowl assembly on motor base and twist the handle right to raise the platform and lock in place.

  • Step 5

    Select ICE CREAM.

  • Step 6

    With a spoon, create a 1 ½-inch wide hold that reaches the bottom of the pint. During this process, it is okay for your treat to press above the MAX FILL line. Add the pistachios to the hole and process again using the MIX-IN program.

  • Step 7

    When processing is complete, remove ice cream from pint and serve immediately.
