Pistachio Jar Dessert
My husband is a Pistachio lover, nuts, pies, cakes, muffins, puddings, anything Pistachio. Today I am surprising him with this Pistachio Jar Dessert, I know he will love it! This is a very easy dessert to make and of course I had to taste it, oh my it is delicious, real creamy with a nutty crunch and the flavor of a cracker give it a great contrast, topping it off with a big twirl of whipped cream and a garnish of nuts.

Yum! It looks like Leonard and Max are happy on this St. Patrick's Day!! I made a pistachio layered dessert for dessert for tonight's dinner.
ReplyDeleteMiz Helen - these look absolutely DELICIOUS !!
ReplyDeleteI'm jealous as we don't have here instant Pistachio pudding, but I might just make it with vanilla pudding.
Sure looks yummy!
ReplyDeleteNot sure what's happening with my posts ~ :( Are they showing up anywhere for you?

ReplyDeleteHi! Stopping by from the Weekend Re-Treat Link party. This looks really good! Thanks for sharing your recipe! By the way, your dog looks a lot like my dog!
ReplyDeleteLove this, Miz Helen! How fun and so perfect for Spring! Great photos :)
ReplyDeleteI never knew there was a pistachio pudding! This looks delish! Thanks for linking up at Best of the Weekend!
ReplyDeleteWhat a lovely dessert, Miz Helen! I have a real weakness for pistachio and have been known to bring back pistachio pudding mixes with me from the US when I travel (we can't get it here in the UK). Your recipe sounds so creamy and luscious - no wonder Leonard and Max loved it so much! Thank you for sharing it with us at the Hearth and Soul hop - pinned and will tweet. Have a lovely weekend!
ReplyDeleteThis looks really good. I love pistachio. I know a while back I made a cake with pistachio pudding mix. My sister in law called in Watergate cake. I really liked it, so this will just hit the right taste, I know. Thanks, you are some cook.
ReplyDeleteNice surprise! I like that you've used yogurt in these jars.
ReplyDeleteLooks like Max loved his treat!
This looks so incredible! Loving it! Pinned and tweeted. Thanks for being a part of our party. I hope to see you tonight at 7. Lou Lou Girls
ReplyDeleteYour pup is adorable!! I know my Chance (labrador) would jump for joy at a taste! Thanks for sharing at Fiesta Friday!

The dessert looks almost as good as your little friend! Thanks for sharing at the What's for Dinner party!
ReplyDeleteMiz Helen,
ReplyDeleteThis dessert looks so yummy and perfect for St. Patrick's Day. My fur babies would love this too.

Hey Miz Helen,
ReplyDeleteHow many servings are in the recipe as it's given here in your column? Serves 2-20 has me scratching my head. This dessert is shrieking GARDEN CLUB to me and I do love to serve the ladies something none of us have had before and this looks like a perfect candidate for our organizational meeting which hopefully have in May of this year.

Hi Yazookid,
DeleteThe recipe here on the post will serve 4 to 6 of the 8 ounce canning jars. It would be a delightful dessert for your Garden Club. Thanks so much for stopping by and enjoy the dessert!
