Yorkshire Pudding with a pistachio twist branded 'dessert of the summer'
People have been left divided over this unique dessert involving a sweet treat and a Yorkshire pudding, with the two freezer items said to be 'the perfect combination of sweet and savory'.
Pistachio has fast been becoming the most popular treat to add into foods lately - from coffee shops selling pistachio lattes, the viral Dubai chocolate, ice cream, pistachio nut butter, pistachio cookies, and more. So much so, that a growing internet frenzy for pistachio-flavoured has reportedly causes a global shortage of pistachios.
Recently, popular food page This Is Planet Food on Instagram who create "out of this world recipes", shared a unique treat - a Yorkshire pudding with pistachio ice cream, chocolate sauce and crushed pistachios. "Why didn't we think of this sooner?!," This Is Planet Food said.
A video of the delight went viral online. The food page added: "Yorkies... but make them dessert. Air-fried until crisp, stuffed with creamy pistachio ice cream, then topped with cracking chocolate sauce and crushed pistachios.
"The taste? Think croissant-meets-waffle vibes. Hot, cold, crispy, gooey, crunchy. This might just be the dessert of the summer."
The author added: "Pistachio is having its moment. Yorkshires are forever. Put them together? Absolute perfections!"
To make the treat, add your Yorkshire puddings to the air fryer and cook at 200C for 5-6 mins until crispy and golden. While they are hot, add a scoop of pistachio ice cream into the middle of the Yorkshire pudding.
If you fancy, drizzle over chocolate cracking sauce and top with chopped pistachios for that extra crunch. "Serve immediately for the ultimate hot/cold dessert moment," This Is Planet Food added.
The recipe has divided food fans. "Next time you are in Spain we will make summer yorkies," one said as they tagged a friend.
One other shared: "I put Quality Street in the mini ones and put them in the air fryer." "Yep, Yorkshire pud tastes like a waffle," insisted one other.
"Well now thank the good lord someone is talkin sense at last," another commented after viewing the video.
Another pointed out: "My Nana used to eat Yorkshire pudding with Jam on or sometimes just a sprinkle of sugar." Another agreed and added: "My Nan always put sugar in her yorkies mixture before cooking."

I slept in Charlotte Brontë's bedroom — and you can too
It's long past midnight, but despite resting in an opulent room on an utterly dreamy four-poster bed I cannot sleep. The mattress is so comfortable that even the most habitual insomniac would fall into a coma once they've snuggled in — what's at fault is my own overactive imagination. My brain is adjusting to the knowledge that just over 200 years ago, all six of the Brontë children slept in this very room, giggling and whispering in bed while their parents, Patrick and Maria, slept next door. Having devoured the works of this ingenious family — Wuthering Heights being a firm favourite — I feel very blessed that my teenage daughter (also called Brontë) and I are the first people in the world to spend a night at the newly renovated, grade II* listed Brontë Birthplace in Thornton. Since the family left this home in 1820, 72-74 Market Street has looked like any other West Yorkshire Georgian terrace, used over the subsequent two centuries as flats and a butcher's shop. But its dark Pennine stone façade has held an incredible secret — it is the birthplace of one of the globe's most prolific set of literary siblings. Thanks to a group of dedicated individuals and investors, including the prominent journalist Christa Ackroyd and Nigel West, a direct descendant of Charlotte Brontë's widower, Arthur Bell Nicholls — the house is now under the care of Brontë Birthplace Limited, a Community Benefit Society, which has brought this historic site back to life. The Rev Patrick, together with his wife Maria and the children Maria and Elizabeth, moved to Thornton parsonage on May 15, 1815. Charlotte, Branwell, Emily and Anne were born between 1816 and 1820 in front of the original parlour fireplace — where visitors can now relax in a cosy café and education centre, soaking up the awe-inspiring atmosphere. As a Brontë devotee, it feels rather overwhelming to enter the front door and tread the same stone steps as these prodigies; even holding the banister that their little hands touched feels electric. Downstairs is Curate Patrick's study where he would have greeted his flock, both well heeled and destitute. Because all the family's original furniture was removed to the Brontë Parsonage Museum in Haworth ( the Brontë Birthplace committee has diligently sourced antique pieces in keeping with the period to furnish the room. At the back of the house is the kitchen, where to the committee's delight the local heritage builder DC Liptrot & Co discovered the original ceiling and flooring where the children would have played, possibly forming their very first stories. A secret door leads up a back staircase where the family's servant, Nancy Garrs, who ended up dying in the Bradford Workhouse, used to sleep with the youngest children. Upstairs are three en suite bedrooms that sleep six in total and can be booked together. They're named after the three sisters, Charlotte, Emily and Anne, and include furnishings to reflect each sister's personality. Emily's room is decorated with antique canine images in honour of her love of dogs, while Charlotte's is very opulent and romantic, with a huge four-poster bed and chaise longue. Anne's room, which is part of a Victorian extension, includes an original window where the children would stand on tippy toes looking out in excitement to watch their father ramble home from preaching at the Brontë Bell Chapel, now a ruin. There's a stunning painting by the local artist Mick Chapman of the church where the children were baptised and which is well worth a visit. • Read our full guide to Yorkshire Although guests staying at the house only have tea and coffee facilities and can't use the kitchen, there's a huge bustling community on the doorstep and the Brontë Birthplace, which was officially opened by the Queen in May, is likely to bring lots more regeneration to Thornton. Its South Square Centre, a beautifully restored Georgian square, is a hub with cafés for breakfast, art exhibitions and heritage displays. The Dickensian-style Watchmaker pub, a snug microbar, serves craft beers and natural wines, while New Manzil, a hugely popular Indian restaurant, produces delicious curries and gigantic naan breads ( Just minutes away is vibrant Bradford — 2025's City of Culture — and further afield is of course the Brontë Parsonage Museum in Haworth, surrounded by magical moorland. It was recently announced that the sweeping landscapes that inspired the Brontë sisters are being protected as one of England's biggest nature reserves — Bradford Pennine Gateway. At over 3,000 acres, this area will link eight nature sites within Bradford and the South Pennine region, protecting peat bogs, heathlands and wetlands. • 17 of the best hotels in Yorkshire for your next break It was over this stunning landscape on April 20, 1820, that six horse-drawn carts carried the Brontë family and their furniture from Thornton to Haworth, leaving a home where Patrick later said he'd spent his happiest days. The move was followed by huge tragedy, with his wife and two eldest daughters dying in quick succession, Maria of what was believed to be cancer and the sisters, aged 11 and 10, of tuberculosis, which later took most of the younger siblings. However, this journey into the wilder parts of the county also inspired the sisters to write their astonishingly bleak, graphically compelling and distinctly expressive classic novels.

Emmerdale legend returning to soap 26 years after she was killed off to quit acting for teaching
LEGENDARY Emmerdale star Glenda McKay is making a return to soap - 26 years after being killed off. The actress played Joe Tate's mother Rachel Hughes in the ITV soap for 11 years between 1988 and 1999. 3 3 3 She famously stepped away from acting shortly after leaving, having joined the soap at 17 alongside her real-life brother Craig McKay. But now she's making a return to screens - and soap - in sister show Coronation Street. A source said: 'Glenda is making an acting comeback 13 years after she was last on TV - she'll be playing a social worker called Alison Hale who deals with Tim and Sally. 'Just as she arrives to tell them they're set to foster the Michealis children, a shocking incident happens that throws everything into chaos.' The actress bowed out of Emmerdale in 1999 with Rachel being dramatically killed off in a domestic abuse storyline. At the time Glenda said: "I've been at Emmerdale for 11 years so it is a big change, but there comes a time when you have to go. 'I have other strings to my bow, and now seems like the right time to put them to the test." More than a decade later she returned to the soap as a visitor after taking a step back from acting to become a teacher. She took her class on a visit to the soap's set and reunited with some of her co-stars. 'The children were delighted to meet Chris Chittell who answered all their questions about what it is like to be famous and what is involved in being a soap actor,' she told the Ilkley Gazette at the time. 'It really was quite a trip for the class and I was delighted that they all behaved well and represented their school with pride. 'They also all appreciated how fortunate they were and were genuinely bowled over by their experience.'

Emmerdale fans 'fume to Ofcom' in shock over 'disgraceful' storyline
Emmerdale viewers were so shocked by violent Emmerdale scenes that they felt the need to reach out to broadcasting regulator Ofcom after a fan favourite was beaten up An Emmerdale fan has 'fired off a complaint' to Ofcom after seeing disturbing scenes. Viewers tuned into ITV's Yorkshire-based soap as usual on Tuesday night and one of them was so impassioned by a certain moment in the half-hour instalment that they felt the need to get in touch with the broadcast regulator. It all happened when Vinny Dingle (Bradley Johnson), confused about his sexuality, met Mike (Macaulay Cooper) on a dating website. Vinny, already tortured after developing feelings for his friend Kammy Hadiq (Shebz Miah) whilst being engaged to Gabby Thomas (Rosie Bentham), invited the man over after he thought they had connected over sharing a problem in common, and it comes as a confrontation saw Mike accuse Vinny of inviting him over just to sleep with him. But as it turned out, Mike was only after money and savagely beat Vinny before walking off with his and Gabby's wedding rings. READ MORE: Is Vinny leaving Emmerdale? Future for Bradley Johnson revealed after heartbreaking storyline As Vinny lay on the floor, he realised that he had disclosed a whole host of sensitive information to this man about his inner turmoil. But fans were so shocked by the violence portrayed, and one was so 'disgusted' that they decide to take action, writing on X afterwards: "I've fired off a complaint to Ofcom- disgusted with how what used to be a family show has morphed into something that seems to be trying to to show as much violence and depravity as it can squeeze into each programme. 7.30 is far too early to show this sort of muck." The angry viewer was not the only one to take umbrage with the upsetting scenes, as another wrote: "This storyline is disgusting, Vinny reaches out to a support group and gets a homophobe and blackmailer, what sort of message is that sending to anyone questioning their own sexuality and wanting to seek out help." Another said: "This storyline is disgusting, Vinny reaches out to a support group and gets a homophobe and blackmailer, what sort of message is that sending to anyone questioning their own sexuality and wanting to seek out help." A further fan slammed the entire storyline as they suggested that the bosses of the soap enlist a Hollywood director to helm all the action that takes place in the fictional Yorkshire village. They said: "Appalling, disgusting storyline. Why don't you just get Tarrantino or Guy Ritchie to Direct. Vinny was a lovely character." One viewer also agreed the scenes were 'shocking', and one suggested: "The 9pm watershed is just a gimmick. Before then, nothing with strong language is allowed to be broadcast. But seriously violent and disturbing scenes such as this are perfectly fine. I can only assume that violence is socially more acceptable than swearing. Disgraceful." But other social media users were quick to play down all the controversy, and reminded them that that tuning in was a completely free choice to begin with. They said: "You know that if people don't like what they're watching, then turn your tv over, miss the episode, these things happen in real life, pity it was Vinny getting pulverised, it should have been John, just saying. Great camaraderie with Manpreet and Ruby."

One said: "I knew there was something fishy about that bloke when Vinny first met him. But I wish # emmerdale hadn't got as dark as this. I much prefer the old." Another added: "Felt sorry for poor Vinny in Emmerdale I knew that lad was dodgy! No need for such violence, really laying into him! This happened before and not just with his dad!"
