Dessert Pizza Shells

Combine the milk and the ground pistachios and heat to boiling. Let stand for 30 minutes. Strain through a chinoise or cheesecloth.

Meanwhile, beat the egg yolks with the sugar until light and pale yellow. Add the pistachio milk. Transfer to a saucepan and cook over low heat, stirring constantly, until the mixture coats the back of a spoon. Cool slightly and add vanilla. Refrigerate until well chilled.
