Recipe - Pistachio Cream Dessert Pizza

Dessert Pizza Shells
2 cup Milk
One half cup Ground pistachios
4 Egg yolks
1/3 cup Sugar
One half teaspoon Vanilla extract
Fresh fruit for garnish

Combine the milk and the ground pistachios and heat to boiling. Let stand
for 30 minutes. Strain through a chinoise or cheesecloth.

Meanwhile, beat the egg yolks with the sugar until light and pale yellow.
Add the pistachio milk. Transfer to a saucepan and cook over low heat,
stirring constantly, until the mixture coats the back of a spoon. Cool
slightly and add vanilla. Refrigerate until well chilled.

Spread pistachio cream over a baked pizza shell. Garnish with fresh fruit
such as strawberries, slices of fresh pears or blueberries.
