This Pistachio Cake was an experiment and turned out beautifully. I wanted to make a cake and was low on supplies. I managed to use what I had on hand and this is the result. Pineapple Pistachio Cake is a very moist cake and so good. First time making this and I will probably make it many more times. I am always experimenting with recipes and trying new ways to make things. This is what makes cooking fun for me and I’ve had plenty of disasters but don’t let that discourage you from trying.
Pineapple Pistachio Cake ingredients needed:
Yellow cake mix without the pudding
Instant pistachio pudding
Eggs
Sour cream
Milk
Can crushed pineapple, undrained
Almond extract or could use vanilla
Coconut
Pecans, chopped or nuts of your choice
Pistachios
I have made this cake a few times now with a basic powdered sugar glaze and topped with some pistachios and we all loved it. This cake is versatile, you could easily add a cream cheese frosting or simply use a can of whipped vanilla frosting, melted for about 12 seconds in the microwave and poured over the cake. Then added some coconut and nuts sprinkled on top. You could use another package of pistachio pudding mixed with cool whip for the frosting. You could also mix together some powdered sugar, milk, and almond extract to drizzle over the cake.
I do keep this cake in a cool place or the refrigerator.
“Baked this yesterday as a surprise for my BFF. She had “”liked” it on Face book around the February timeframe. They had a cookout last night and I surprised her with this cake. She absolutely loved it. Great cake and easy recipe. Thank you.” – Louise

I topped with a basic powdered sugar glaze and pistachios
This cake is so good you could just sprinkle with powdered sugar. I used a can of whipped vanilla frosting, melted for about 12 seconds in the microwave and poured over the cake. Then added some coconut and nuts sprinkled on top. You could use another package of pistachio pudding mixed with cool whip for the frosting. You could also mix together some powdered sugar, milk, and almond extract to drizzle over the cake.
