As much as I love experimenting and trying new things in the kitchen, there are some recipes that I just keep coming back to! This Pistachio Pudding Lush Dessert is a sweet treat that I can remember enjoying since I was just a little girl.
As I close my eyes, I imagine being surrounded by my loved ones. The sounds of chatting and laughter fill the air. My great-grandpa is concentrating hard over a game of checkers with one of my cousins. My great-grandma is bustling around the kitchen, preparing a feast for her full house. While this still feels like yesterday, it also seems like a lifetime ago. So many things have changed. The youngsters are now parents with children of our own, and several others are now watching over us from above.
Turning back the clock is impossible, but I am able to flashback a bit by enjoying some of the same great flavors that I did back then! And that is just what I do with this Pistachio Pudding Lush Dessert! It has a perfect crust topped with sweet, creamy, flavorful layers! It’s perfect for your holiday gathering or just because! If you are anything like me, every day is a special occasion to enjoy something delicious!
