This is my favorite cake to bake. The only thing I did to tweak the recipe was adding a teaspoon of vanilla extract. Other than that, it was scrumptious!

Easy and yummy. I used Cool Whip (with pudding) rather than the Dream Whip/milk combo for the frosting.

My husband asked for a pistachio cake and boy, is he picky! He loved this cake. He only wanted confectionary sugar sprinkled on the top and it was delicious.

I was looking for a recipe like this a few weeks ago. I've heard it called other things but basically still pistachio pudding, yellow cake mix made with sprite or 7-up, toffee chips on the top, whip cream. I'm glad that I found it.

Boyfriend loved it! I actually accidently poured milk into the batter, which made it even more delicious!

CAKE IS VERY MOIST & EASY TO MAKE. I DIDN'T REALLY SEE THE NEED FOR ALL THE OIL & EGGS. OVERALL THE CAKE IS GOOD. I USED FAT FREE COOL WHIP INSTEAD OF THE DRY DREAM WHIP FOR THE FROSTING/TOPPING.

The cake was very light, airy, delicious and easy to make. I didn't care too much for the frosting.

This was good but I don't think it was anything to rave about. I used a tub of cool whip with the pudding mix for icing and should have used 2 tubs as it was a little grainy. I might try this again using lemon pudding.

I'm not a big cake fan, but wanted something easy to make for a work potluck. But OH MY GOSH THIS CAKE WAS TASTY!!!! I put crushed pistachios on top, and made the "icing" out of coolwhip and pistachio pudding mix. Excellent! I imagine you could substitute other flavors of pudding in this cake and it would be a wonderful alternative.

A Tremendous Hit! This recipe is so insanely delicious that my family and neighbors devoured it in one sitting! (Everyone took seconds and thirds.) The moist texture combined with the creamy pistachio whipped topping makes this a Must Have in my dessert recipe box.

This is a super rich cake. I cut the frosting amount in half, as otherwise it's too sweet for us. But I have to say that I've never brought it to a party without people begging me for the recipe by the end of the day. Delicious! Edit 05/06: It's been a couple of years and I'm still making this cake. Made it tonight for a church cake auction tomorrow. Wanted to mention that I've started adding about half of a small can of drained crushed pineapple to the frosting...fold in in right before I put it on the cake. It adds a really nice twist.

I have made this cake in the past on several occasions and it is a hit every time! I was never a huge fan of pistachios growing up but you don't have to be to enjoy this recipe.

I made this last night for my Christmas dinner with my friends and it was a hit. I used cool whip with the pudding mix and a small amount of milk for the frosting. Very good. Thanks
