Sure! Here’s a recipe for Pistachio Pineapple Cake:
Ingredients:
- 1 box of yellow cake mix
- 1 package (3.4 ounces) of instant pistachio pudding mix
- 4 eggs
- 1 cup of vegetable oil
- 1 cup of crushed pineapple (drained)
- 1/2 cup of chopped pistachios
- 1/2 cup of shredded coconut (optional)
- Whipped cream or cream cheese frosting for topping (optional)
Instructions:
- Preheat your oven to the temperature indicated on the cake mix box. Grease and flour a 9×13-inch baking pan.
- In a large mixing bowl, combine the yellow cake mix, pistachio pudding mix, eggs, and vegetable oil. Beat the mixture until it becomes smooth and well-combined.
- Add the crushed pineapple to the batter and stir until it is evenly distributed. You can reserve a few tablespoons of crushed pineapple for garnishing if desired.
- Fold in the chopped pistachios and shredded coconut (if using). Mix until they are evenly incorporated into the batter.
- Pour the batter into the prepared baking pan, spreading it out evenly.
- Place the pan in the preheated oven and bake according to the time specified on the cake mix box, usually around 25-30 minutes. To check for doneness, insert a toothpick into the center of the cake. If it comes out clean or with a few crumbs clinging to it, the cake is done.
- Once the cake is baked, remove it from the oven and let it cool in the pan for about 10 minutes. Then, transfer it to a wire rack to cool completely.
- If desired, you can top the cooled cake with whipped cream or cream cheese frosting. You can also garnish with the reserved crushed pineapple and additional chopped pistachios.
- Slice and serve the Pistachio Pineapple Cake, and enjoy!
Note: Feel free to adjust the amount of crushed pineapple, pistachios, and shredded coconut according to your preference. You can also add a few drops of green food coloring to enhance the pistachio color if desired.
