  • Mix in the powdered sugar, vanilla extract, and ground cinnamon until fully incorporated.
  • Fold in the mini chocolate chips gently, taking care not to overmix.

  • Cover the dish with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 4 hours or overnight.
  • Sprinkle with chopped pistachios before serving, if desired.
  • Cut into squares and serve chilled.
