Description

Pistachio Bundt Cake is a moist, nutty dessert combining the rich flavor of pistachios with a soft, buttery cake, topped with a simple glaze or powdered sugar. Elegant and easy to make, this cake is perfect for any occasion.

Ingredients

  • 1 box (15.25 oz) yellow cake mix (or white cake mix)
  • 1 package (3.4 oz) instant pistachio pudding mix
  • 4 large eggs
  • 1/2 cup vegetable oil
  • 1 cup sour cream
  • 1/2 cup water
  • 1/2 cup chopped pistachios (optional)
  • For the glaze (optional):
  • 1 cup powdered sugar
  • 2 tablespoons milk or cream
  • 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • Pinch of salt

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour a 10-inch Bundt pan.
  2. Prepare the cake batter: In a large bowl, combine the cake mix, pistachio pudding mix, eggs, vegetable oil, sour cream, and water. Mix using an electric mixer on medium speed for 2 minutes. Fold in chopped pistachios if desired.
  3. Bake the cake: Pour the batter into the prepared Bundt pan. Bake for 45-50 minutes or until a toothpick comes out clean. Let it cool for 10 minutes in the pan before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.
  4. Make the glaze (optional): While the cake cools, whisk together powdered sugar, milk or cream, vanilla extract, and a pinch of salt. If too thick, add more milk for a smooth consistency.
  5. Glaze the cake: Once the cake is fully cooled, drizzle the glaze over it. Alternatively, dust with powdered sugar if you prefer a simpler finish.
  6. Serve: Slice and serve. Enjoy with a cup of coffee or tea!
