Instructions
- Brew the coffee and let it cool to room temperature.

- In a separate bowl, whip the whipping cream until soft peaks form. Add powdered sugar and vanilla extract, and continue to beat until stiff peaks form.
- Gently fold the whipped cream into the pistachio mixture until fully combined, being careful not to deflate the whipped cream.
