Spread and put the mould in the freezer for an hour.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-9949\" src=\"https:\/\/belmorso.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/ice-cream-cake-11-300x225.jpg\" alt=\"ice-cream-cake\" width=\"300\" height=\"225\" \/> <img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-9951\" src=\"https:\/\/belmorso.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/ice-cream-cake-13-300x225.jpg\" alt=\"ice-cream-cake\" width=\"300\" height=\"225\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Blitz the tarallini, add the melted butter, some vanilla essence (the quantity depends on the strength of your essence), and the milk. Mix with a fork until you get a crumble texture, but a little wetter.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-9939\" src=\"https:\/\/belmorso.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/ice-cream-cake-1-300x225.jpg\" alt=\"ice-cream-cake\" width=\"300\" height=\"225\" \/> <img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-9941\" src=\"https:\/\/belmorso.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/ice-cream-cake-3-300x225.jpg\" alt=\"ice-cream-cake\" width=\"300\" height=\"225\" \/><\/p>\n<p>After the hour has passed, take the mould out of the freezer and pour the tarallini crumble on top of the chocolate layer. Spread evenly, and freeze again for an hour.<\/p>\n<p>PS: You can check it before and see whether it gets solids earlier than that.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-9942\" src=\"https:\/\/belmorso.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/ice-cream-cake-4-300x225.jpg\" alt=\"ice-cream-cake\" width=\"300\" height=\"225\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Once the second hour has passed, take the mould out and spread a layer of pistachio cream. You can buy it in your supermarket (it&#8217;s ok if you don&#8217;t find di Bronte Pistachios, just use regular ones). If you can&#8217;t find a pistachio cream, just make your own by blitzing 100 gr of pistachios and adding 5 tablespoons water. If you use a powerful food processor, you won&#8217;t need the water.<\/p>\n<p>Put the mould in the freezer for another hour or longer.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-9943\" src=\"https:\/\/belmorso.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/ice-cream-cake-5-300x225.jpg\" alt=\"ice-cream-cake\" width=\"300\" height=\"225\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Then take it out and top with one thick layer of your vanilla ice cream.<\/p>\n<p>Add your chocolate buttons or dried fruit now, inserting them in the ice cream. Once ready, freeze for 2 hours or longer, until the ice cream has become solid. I froze mine overnight.<\/p>\n<p>Melt a second bar of chocolate, and once cool, pour it over the ice cream.<\/p>\n<p>While the chocolate is still melted sprinkle the pistachios. I chopped half of them and added the others whole for some extra texture profiles.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-9955\" src=\"https:\/\/belmorso.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/ice-cream-cake-300x225.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"225\" \/><\/p>\n<h5>Tips<\/h5>\n<p>If you want to make this but want to save time you can.
