Total Calories: 200

Ingredients

1/4 teaspoon saffron threads
2 tablespoons heavy cream cheese or whole milk
1/4 cup , slices raw almonds
2 tablespoons shelled raw pistachio nuts
1/2 teaspoon ground green cardamom seeds
1 pint vanilla ice cream

Directions:

1. In a small bowl, soak the saffron threads in the cream (or milk) about 30 minutes. Meanwhile, in a small nonstick skillet, dry-roasts the sliced almonds, stirring, over medium heat until golden, about 1 minute. Let cool and reserve for garnish.

2. In a spice or coffee grinder, grind together the blanched almonds, pistachios, and ground cardamom seeds to make as fine as possible. (Or grind each separately, then mix together well.) Place rounded scoops of vanilla ice cream on a platter, top with the ground nut and seed mixture, and drizzle with the saffron milk. Scatter the dry-roasted almonds on top, and serve.
