This cake can be found in the Jell-O Pudding cookbook,"Easy Homemade Desserts with Jell-O Pudding," published in 1979 and, yes, it is very good. They use the Dream Whip and pudding for the icing, which is very good. I have also been making this for years.

This is the best pistachio cake I've ever made. I think the secret is in the icing!

To charlenepaugustyn - To avoid all the extra "stuff" on the page - run curser over what you want to print, right click to copy, & paste it in Word. You can delete anything from that that you don't need. I do the same things for the reviews to eliminate all the extra "stuff" & reviews that don't help.

I am not a huge fan of desserts but this is one that I will eat in a New York minute. The only thing I do differently is to use pistachios since this IS a pistachio cake

WHAT GIVES WITH THE AD'S ON THE RIGHT HAND SIDE? WHEN YOU PRINT THE RECIPE, YOU CANNOT DELETE THEM & THEY ARE USING UP WAY TO MUCH OF MY COLORED INK. PLEASE LET US DELETE THEM BEFORE PRINTING THE RECIPE. THANKS.

I have almost this exact recipe that has been in my family for years. Mine is made with a white cake mix and no oil or nuts in the cake and no nuts or extra sugar in the icing. People rave about it and beg me for the recipe.
