Pistachio Cake
This is a delicious cake recipe that I enjoyed while growing up. You use a boxed cake mix, and add some additional ingredients to this and you have a wonderfully fresh tasting cake. My grandmother McDowell was often made this cake when I went to go visit her. You can prepare this as a double layered cake or even in a 13 x 9 inch pan. Both are equally as good. I hope you enjoy this classic cake recipe that I have enjoyed for so many years.

I made this cake this weekend for a get together and it was a big hit. It was wonderful in a very understated way. When you ate it, you realized it was good and light, super moist but you didn’t want to smear it all over yourself – not that good. BUT both me and my husband, after leaving the cake at a friends house kept thinking about and craving this cake – it’s special that way.
made this cake in the 80’s was called watergate cake still make it now always a winneer
This cake was also a big family tradition. My mother makes it at Christmas and it is the only cake my kids want for their birthdays. I lost the recepie and was so glad to find it on this sight. It is a very moist and delicious cake. Thanks!
