Instructions
- Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a 9-inch round cake pan with butter or line it with parchment paper.
- Mix Butter and Sugar: In a large mixing bowl, cream together the softened butter and sugar until light and fluffy.
- Add Eggs and Vanilla: Add the eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition, followed by the vanilla extract.
- Combine Dry Ingredients: In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, finely ground pistachios, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.
- Combine Wet and Dry: Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture, alternating with the milk, and mix until just combined.
- Bake: Pour the batter into the prepared cake pan and sprinkle the coarsely chopped pistachios on top. Bake for 30-35 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
- Cool and Serve: Allow the cake to cool in the pan for about 10 minutes, then transfer it to a wire rack to cool completely.
