Pistachio Nut Cake image

My cousin wanted a pistachio cake for her wedding, so rather than use boxed yellow cake mix and pistachio pudding mix, I opted for fresh pistachio nuts and came up with this delicious recipe!

Time 1h15m

Yield 10

Number Of Ingredients 12

1 cup milk
2 teaspoons almond extract
1 teaspoon salt
¼ teaspoon vanilla extract
1 ½ cups white sugar
½ cup butter
2 eggs
3 ounces pistachio nuts, crushed
2 ½ cups sifted all-purpose flour
1 tablespoon white vinegar
1 ½ teaspoons baking soda
1 (16 ounce) can white frosting

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease two 8-inch round cake pans.
  • Mix milk, almond extract, salt, and vanilla extract together in a small bowl.
  • Combine sugar and butter in a large bowl; beat with an electric mixer until creamy and smooth. Beat in eggs one at a time. Mix in pistachio nuts. Add flour to the creamed butter mixture alternately with the milk mixture, stirring batter well after each addition.
  • Mix vinegar and baking soda together in a small bowl. Fold into the batter. Divide batter between the prepared cake pans.
  • Bake in the preheated oven until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean, about 30 minutes. Cool in the pans for 10 minutes. Invert onto a wire rack to cool completely, about 20 minutes.
  • Spread white frosting between cake layers. Stack layers; frost top and sides of cake.

This cake was a bit dry. I think I'll add some more milk or water to the batter next time.
