Old Fashion Recipe for Double Pistachio Cake

This is an interesting recipe I found in my late mother"s old metal recipe box.ч  It may be old but it is tasty!ч  Pistachio lovers will be thrilled with this cake.ч  If you are looking for something different for that office pitch-in, church supper, bake sale, holiday dinner, birthday cake, family reunion, etc. give this cake a try.ч  For Christmas I suggest taking a small spatula and drawing serving-sized squares in the frosting.ч  Then inside each square place a maraschino cherry.ч  This gives you a festive holiday look and it is quick and easy to do.ч  It is also a simple cake to let the little ones decorate with you.ч  The frosting is easy to apply and they can add sprinkle decorations to suit the occasion.ч  They will be so proud when everyone brags on their cake!
