Notes
I used day old store-bought croissant, but freshly baked croissant would be good too.
I used store-bought pistachio spread with only 30% pistachio as indicated on the label. Homemade pistachio spread is ideal. If homemade pistachio spread is used, you may need less than 4 tablespoons.
The store-bought pistachio cream used is sweet enough without the need to add sugar to the cream, but if a sweeter version is preferred, add 1 teaspoon or more to taste.
If whipped cream is preferred, whip cream and fold the pistachio cream to create a light and airy mixture.
