Instructions

Transfer the pistachios to a food processor and blitz for 20 minutes or until you get a very smooth, thin paste (this is natural pistachio butter). Stop half way through and scrape the bowl of your food processor with a rubber spatula.✏️ Note: You can also use a high-power blender with a tamper, but you may need to double the recipe if the quantity of pistachios is too small for the blender to process effectively.
After 20 minutes of processing, the pistachio butter should be warm. Add the white chocolate (and the vegetable oil - if using) and process for 5 minutes more, until the chocolate is completely incorporated and the mixture is smooth.
Pour the pistachio cream spread into a jar and store at room temperature. It will be warm and runny at first but it will thicken by the next day.
