- 50 ml Italian walnut liqueur
- 0.25 tsp cinnamon powder
Instructions
- 1. Cut the avocados in half lengthwise.
- 2. Carefully remove the pits.

- 7. Sprinkle the ice cream with finely chopped pistachios.
- 8. Put the chopped walnuts into a dry pan.

- 20. Stop heating as soon as the mixture thickens.
- 21. Make sure the mixture does not boil again.
- 22. Strain the vanilla cream through a fine sieve.
- 23. This removes any remnants of the vanilla pods.
- 24. Let the cream cool down.
- 25. Lightly sprinkle the surface with sugar.
