Ingredients

1 cup shelled pistachios

1 cup cookie crumbs( Vanilla wafers )

3 tablespoons granulated sugar

1/3 cup butter or margarine, melted, plus 1/2 cup butter or margarine, softened

2/3 cup heavy cream

12 ounces white chocolate, finely chopped

4 (8-ounce) packages cream cheese, softened

2/3 cup cup sifted confectioners sugar

2 teaspoons vanilla

Additional pistachio nuts and/or fresh sliced strawberries for garnish

Directions

Preheat oven to 350 degrees F

In a food processor, process nuts until finely chopped.

Add cookie crumbs, granulated sugar and melted butter.

Pulse 4 or 5 times until blended

Lightly grease a 9-or 10-inch springform pan. Press crumb mixture onto bottom and 1 to 1 1/2 inches up the sides.

Bake for 12 minutes or until lightly browned.

Cool completely on a wire rack

In a heavy saucepan, bring the cream to a simmer. Remove from heat, add white chocolate. Stir gently with a rubber spatula until smooth.

In a large mixing bowl, beat cream cheese and softened butter at medium speed or an electric mixer until creamy.

Add confectioners sugar. Beat until fluffy. Add melted chocolate mixture and vanilla; beat 3 minutes or until very smooth.

Pour batter into prepared crust.

Cover and freeze until firm (at least 6 hours) or up to 1 week.

Let stand at room temperature 30 minutes (or more if it's been frozen for more than a day)

Remove sides of pan.

Garnish, then cut with a sharp knife, dipping the knife in hot water and wiping it dry between each slice
