Instructions

  1. 1 Gather the ingredients. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease and flour a 10-inch Bundt or tube pan.
  2. 2 Process pistachios in a food processor until nuts become smooth and creamy, 7 to 10 minutes, stopping to scrape down sides of bowl as needed. Set aside.
  3. 3 Whisk cake mix and pudding mix together in a large bowl, create a well in the center.
  4. 4 Add water, eggs, oil, processed pistachios, green food coloring, and pistachio extract into center of well. Whisk together until fully combined.
  5. 5 Pour batter into prepared pan.
  6. 6 Bake in the preheated oven until cake springs back when lightly pressed, or a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean, 50 to 55 minutes.
  7. 7 Cool in the pan for 15 minutes. Turn out onto a wire rack and cool completely.
  8. 8 To make the glaze: Whisk together powdered sugar, heavy cream, and vanilla extract in a small bowl until fully combined.
  9. 9 Spoon glaze evenly over cooled cake, garnish with chopped pistachios, slice and serve.
