Grandma Overgaard's Pistachio Cake image

I remember the first time my Grandma made this cake. My grandparents stayed with my brother and I when my parents went to Hawaii for vacation in 1972. So I was about 10-11 yrs old.

I love pistachio cake and this recipe is one of the best I've tried. The cake is moist and flavorful, and the frosting is light and fluffy. The chopped pistachios add a nice crunch and visual appeal. I would definitely make this cake again.

I'm allergic to pistachios, so I substituted chopped walnuts in this recipe. The cake turned out great! The walnuts added a nice crunch and flavor that complemented the cake perfectly.

This cake was a disappointment. The pistachio flavor was barely noticeable and the cake was dry and crumbly. I would not recommend this recipe.
