You can also make the traditional graham cracker crust or even chocolate graham crackers would work!  Do you know someone who LOVES pistachio?  Make them this cheesecake and watch the huge grin appear as they take their first bite!

Serves 10 to 12



In a small bowl, combine the flour and almonds; cut in butter until crumbly. (I used a food processor)Press onto the bottom and 1-1/4 in. up the side of 9 in. spring form pan. Bake at 350 degrees for 10 min.
Filling:
In a large bowl, beat cream cheese, milk and pudding mixes until smooth.

Add eggs; beat on low speed just until combined.

Pour over crust.

Place pan on a baking sheet.Bake for 55 to 60 min. or until the center is almost set.
Cool on a wire rack for 10 min. Carefully run a knife around the edge of the pan to loosen. Cool 1 hour longer. Refrigerate overnight.
