  4. In a large bowl, beat the cream cheese and powdered sugar until smooth, then add heavy cream and vanilla extract.
  5. Mix in the melted white chocolate and gradually add the eggs, mixing on low until just combined after each addition.
  6. Fold in the finely chopped pistachios until evenly distributed.
  7. Pour the filling over the cooled crust, smoothing the top.
  8. Bake for 45-50 minutes until the edges are set and the center has a slight jiggle.
