Pistachio Dream Cake

Submitted by SweetDivaMJ

"Adapted from Taste of Home. My DH likes anything with pistachios in it, so this is a winner with him. I use the regular pistachio pudding mix instead of sugar-free because I don't like the artificial sweeteners, but you could use sugar-free and still have delicious results..."

I have baked for over 65 years and this is the worst cake I have ever made! It is gummy and it fell as soon as it came out of the oven. I cooked it much longer than the recipe said to because when I inserted a toothpick in it, it was still not done. My oven temperature is accurate. Thank goodness I wasn't serving it to guests. It went in the garbage.
