Best Frosty Pistachio Delight Recipes

FROSTY PISTACHIO DELIGHT

Frosty Pistachio Delight image

This is a Taste of Home recipe. I love pistachio ice cream, but it's very hard to find around here, except for the holidays. I haven't tried this yet, but I wanted to put it here for safe keeping. :) I think I may just put this in a regular (not chocolate) graham cracker crust, and skip the hot fudge topping, but that's just me.
