4-Ingredient Pistachio Gelato Fudge
Our simple and silky 4-Ingredient Pistachio Gelato Fudge, makes you feel like your sitting in a piazza in Italy! It’s a decadent nutty fudge recipe that tastes amazing at room temperature or frozen.
The other day I was thinking, it doesn’t seem fair that Christmas is the only holiday we celebrate with fudge. Independence Day doesn’t get fudge. Easter…… no fudge.
Heck, not even Thanksgiving gets its own fudge. Yet at Christmas we make pounds of it in all different varieties.
I don’t know about you, but if I were a holiday I would revolt.
Saint Patrick’s Day deserves fudge, guys. Green Fudge.
Made out of one of the best green foods around… Pistachios!
So today I’m serving up smooth creamy 4-Ingredient Pistachio Gelato Fudge for St. Paddy’s Day.
I do apologize if this recipe concept is a little confusing. It’s green for St. Paddy’s day, yet tastes like Italy. However, if I had used a traditional green Irish ingredient we would have ended up with cabbage flavored fudge. I figured you would forgive me on the less than authentic recipe.
Although it isn’t Irish, this 4-Ingredient Pistachio Gelato Fudge is authentically divine.
Our 4-Ingredient Pistachio Gelato Fudge is ultra soft and silky, with the mellow nutty note of pure pistachio, and bits of crunchy green pistachio pieces speckled throughout.
This easy microwave fudge recipe takes less than 5 minutes to prepare and includes only 4 ingredients: Sweetened Condensed Milk, Almond Bark, Pistachio Extract, and Chopped Pistachios. (You can add green food coloring if you like.)
You simply melt, stir, and pour it into a baking dish to cool. After the fudge hardens, cut it into squares and prepare to melt with delight as it melts in your mouth.
We even keep our Pistachio Gelato Fudge in the freezer so you truly get the frozen gelato essence!
