34 pistachio nut recipes

A layered Italian cassata cake with orange-ricotta filling, chocolate, candied citron, and vanilla frosting topped with pistachios. A Sicilian bakery classic you can make at home.

There are many renditions of pistachio cake, but I believe this one to be the original. Through the years, Mum would always ask what kind of cake I would want for my birthday. My answer would almost always be "pistachio cake." To this day, this is one of my all-time favorites.
