Whereas the cake is cooling,  place the Pistachio Cream and milk (add milk provided that your pistachio cream is overly thick) in a blender or meals processor, mix till utterly mixed and creamy. If the combination is simply too thick then add just a little extra milk, if too skinny then add just a little extra pistachio cream.
