Pistachio Cake

My mom found this recipe in a magazine and it reminded her of how she would make this cake in college. I decided to give it a try and I was blown away by how moist and unique tasting Pistachio Cake is! Now, this pretty green cake has to be my most requested cakes!

In fact, my friend Terra comes all the way back to Kauai from Boston for this dessert!

Ingredients

Cake

1 box yellow cake mix
1 box pistachio pudding mix
1 cup oil
3 eggs
1 can/cup Sprite or lemon lime soda (this gives the cake a nice light and airy texture)

Topping

1 container cool whip, thawed
1/2 cup milk (almond or soy works great too)
1 box pistachio pudding mix

Directions

1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
2. Mix all the cake ingredients together just until mixed.
3. Bake, following cooking time on cake box.
4. Meanwhile, make topping by first mixing pudding mix and milk then folding in the cool whip.
5. Chill cake for about an hour then frost with your cool whip topping.
6. Keep chilled and enjoy a nice huge slice!
