🤍💚 Elegant White Chocolate Pistachio Cake 😋🍰
Ingredients:
- 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 cup shelled pistachios, finely ground
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 cup unsalted butter, softened
- 1 cup granulated sugar
- 2 large eggs
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1/2 cup buttermilk
- 1/2 cup sour cream
- 1/2 cup white chocolate chips
- For the Frosting:
- 1 cup unsalted butter, softened
- 4 cups powdered sugar
- 1/2 cup white chocolate, melted and cooled
- 1/4 cup heavy cream
- 1/4 cup pistachio puree
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- Chopped pistachios for garnish
Directions:
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour three 8-inch round cake pans.
- In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, ground pistachios, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. Set aside.
- In a large mixing bowl, cream the butter and sugar together until light and fluffy. Beat in the eggs one at a time, then stir in the vanilla extract.
- Combine the buttermilk and sour cream in a small bowl. Alternately add the flour mixture and the buttermilk mixture to the butter mixture, beginning and ending with the flour mixture. Fold in the white chocolate chips.
- Divide the batter evenly between the prepared cake pans and smooth the tops. Bake for 25-30 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. Allow the cakes to cool in the pans for 10 minutes, then turn out onto wire racks to cool completely.
- For the frosting, beat the butter in a large bowl until creamy. Gradually add the powdered sugar, beating until combined. Add the melted white chocolate, heavy cream, pistachio puree, and vanilla extract, and beat until smooth.
- Assemble the cake by placing one layer on a serving plate. Spread with a layer of frosting, then top with the second cake layer. Repeat with the third layer. Frost the top and sides of the cake, then garnish with chopped pistachios.
