Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Line an 8x8 inch baking pan with parchment paper.
In a medium mixing bowl, combine the almond flour, granulated erythritol, and melted butter. Mix until the texture resembles wet sand.
Press the almond flour mixture into the bottom of the prepared baking dish to form an even crust.
Bake the crust for 10-12 minutes, or until golden brown. Remove from oven and let it cool completely.
In a large mixing bowl, beat the cream cheese until smooth and creamy.
Add the heavy whipping cream, pistachio flour, and vanilla extract to the cream cheese. Beat until fully combined and fluffy.
Gently fold in the powdered erythritol into the cream cheese mixture until well incorporated.
Spread the cream cheese mixture evenly over the cooled crust. Use a spatula to smooth the top.
In a food processor, pulse the shelled pistachios and shredded coconut until crumbly, but not too fine.
Sprinkle the pistachio and coconut mixture evenly over the top of the cream layer.
Refrigerate the assembled dish for at least 2 hours or until set.
Once set, cut into 16 squares. Serve chilled and enjoy your low carb pistachio cream squares.
