      My family does basically the same cake. We use white mix, 1/2 c. water, 1/2 c. milk, 1/2 c. oil, 5 eggs and 2 pkgs of instant pudding. Makes for a pretty green cake that is heavy, moist and has a few nuts for texture. For an icing we use heavy whipping cream, sugar, and a 3rd pkg of instant pistachio pudding. It's our classic St. Patrick's Day cake.

      Very nice combo. I made this for a Christmas work party and loved that it was green and festive. With one package of pistachio pudding, it is only a hint of flavor. I think next time I might try two packages to see if there is a stronger pistachio taste. Thanks for posting.

      It's okey but not to die for. The texture was really great though. Overall, my daughter loved it so will still be making it again. Thanks!

      My 6 year old son made his with help from me of course. We both loved it. My husband didn't like it so well, but that was because of the nuts. We might make this again. Only reason we wouldn't is I am gluten intolerant, and my husband won't eat it so that just leaves the whole cake for a 6 year old. We might try it with different flavors for the others. Thanks for a great recipe!

      I really liked this. The texture was great and the flavor although subtle was perfect. Will definately be playing around with flavors on this one. Thanks!!

      I think this cake tasted really really artificial, the texture was really good but I wouldn't give any credit to the taste

      THE BEST EVER!!! My Grandma made this cake for years. She would also sprinkle with icing sugar or drizzle with a simple icing.

      My mom always made this cake when I was little. It's easy to throw together, it's green (a fun memory for a little kid) and it's delicious!

      I used white cake mix and whipped it by hand-it was okay. It was very moist and light although I thought it was rather boring in taste. I imagine the yellow cake mix would give it more of a pound cake consisitency. I think I would try it again using the proper cake mix.

      I really enjoyed this. I added 6 oz. of white chocolate chips, which added a little something extra special. Then, I iced it with a package of pastachio instant pudding mixed with 3/4 cup of milk, and an 8 oz. container of Cool Whip. Made a very pretty, light green cake that tasted wonderful. Thank you!

      This was O.K. I couldn't eat more than a bite. Guess i'm not a pistachio fan.

      Easy as "CAKE"! My kids weren't "NUTS" about it but I was! I mixed with an electric mixer for 2 minutes like some of the other reviewers suggested. Looked just like Paula G's photo! Thanks!

      This cake really is amazing with only 1/4 cup of oil it bakes up light and moist. I did follow the package directions and beat the cake with the Kitchenaid for 2 minutes, poured it into a bundt cake pan and baked it 45 minutes. Topped this off with Light Mint Chocolate Chip Ice Cream for a great St. Patrick's Day dessert.

      This was awesome. My husband loved it with cool whip which put it over the top. I though plain was perfect. I've seen almost the exact same recipe only using 1 cup of oil. I can't imagine using that much oil in this cake....it came out very moist and perfect. I did beat it with my kitchen aid mixer for a little bit which might have made it lighter....in any case I just bought the ingredients to make it again.
