How To Make vintage pistachio cake

Step 1

Mix everything in a bowl, beating 4 mins.

Step 2

Pour into greased tube pan no NOT flour pan!!
Step 3

Bake in preheated oven 350 F degrees 40 minutes. Freezes well!
Step 4

Notes: I add 1 tsp. almond extract to batter. I use a bunt pan, and bake 350 F degrees for 50 minutes. Let cool in the pan 15 minutes. Invert pan, cool cake completely. Dust with confectioners sugar.
Step 5

For Frosting: * Opts 1: 1 (3.4 ounce) package instant pistachio pudding mix 1 pint of heavy whipping cream * Opts 2: 16 oz. container of Cool Whip mixed with 1 (3.4 ounce) package instant pistachio pudding mix * You can change up and add other ingredients as you wish such as chocolate chips and cherries. I've also changed the cake and puddng mixes to make other flavors.
Step 6

* FYI!!!!! Never use pudding with a cake mix that already has pudding in it. That's what makes it fail. Duncan Hines, works every time!
