    Semplice, veloce e di grandissimo effetto. La base croccante contrasta benissimo con il ripieno vellutato al pistacchio, è piaciuta tantissimo a tutti i miei ospiti.

    Il dolce perfetto per l'estate, fresco e golosissimo. Si prepara in pochissimi minuti senza accendere il forno e la consistenza della crema al pistacchio è una favola.
