Tips:
Now, let’s talk about the details. The pudding mix must be instant and you can choose to make this cake as a layer cake or in a bundt pan. If you’re looking for a festive touch, this recipe is ideal for St. Patrick’s Day because of the green tint. But, if you’re not a fan of food coloring, you can leave it out or opt for natural food coloring.
Another great thing about this recipe is that you can use vanilla, white, butter, or yellow cake mixes. It’s super versatile and you can make it your own.
One thing to keep in mind is that if you have a nut allergy, you should avoid this recipe because many pistachio puddings contain small chunks of pistachios. Safety first, my friends!
Overall, this pistachio cake recipe is a winner. It’s easy, delicious, and perfect for any occasion. So, what are you waiting for? Get baking!
