Ingredients
Scale
- 1 ½ cups graham cracker crumbs
- ½ cup unsalted butter, melted
- 1 cup sweetened condensed milk
- 1 cup sour cream
- 3.4 oz package pistachio pudding mix
- 2 tablespoons fresh mint or basil, finely chopped
- Green food coloring (optional)
- Whipped cream for topping
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). In a bowl, combine graham cracker crumbs and melted butter. Press the mixture into the bottom of a 9-inch pie dish to form the crust. Bake for about 10 minutes or until golden brown.
- In another bowl, whisk together sweetened condensed milk, sour cream, pistachio pudding mix, and chopped herbs until smooth.
- Divide the filling into two portions. Add green food coloring to one half until desired shade is achieved.
- Pour spoonfuls of both fillings alternately into the cooled crust, swirling gently with a knife for a marbled effect.
- Cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 4 hours or overnight until set.
- Before serving, top with whipped cream and garnish with fresh herbs or crushed pistachios.
