This 1970 CHICAGO PISTACHIO CAKE RECIPE was inserted the 1995 Walgreen's cook Book! My friend Jeannie, made this wonderful cake. It was so good I asked for the recipe. I have been making it ever since. It is always the first to go at pot-lucks and Veteran functions. It is a winner. Over the last 30 years, I have seen many variations of this recipe...and I always go back to this one... * NOTE: see Kristin Miller recipe for "Lightened Up Pistachio Cake" If you want to save on calories http://www.justapinch.com/recipes/dessert/cake/lightened-up-pistachio-cake.html?page=1
