My good friend, Annie, makes this moist delicious bundt cake all the time. I love it! She was nice enough to let me share the recipe. It’s easy to make and always a crowd pleaser. I love the cheery light green color – it reminds me of spring – even though it’s cold and snowy outside today! It’s delicious with a dusting of powdered sugar or with a cream cheese glaze and a sprinkling of chopped pistachios.
Delicious with a glaze or simply dusted with powdered sugar!
It’s a quick cake to mix together as it starts with white cake mix and pistachio instant pudding – then you mix in eggs, oil and sour cream, which makes it tender and moist. The center of the cake has a ribbon of cinnamon sugar. This is a great cake for any occasion but with the swirl of cinnamon in the center, I love it with coffee for breakfast! lol!
Mix together cake mix, pudding mix, eggs, sour cream and oil.
Add half the batter to prepared pan.
Then sprinkle with cinnamon sugar.
Top with the rest of the batter.
Bake for 45 minutes, then cool for 5 in the pan.

Hi Carolyn – So glad you and your son enjoyed the cake!! Love to hear it!!
Thank you Tina and QVC
Could you possibly bell me what size bundt pan you used? I have several different sizes and I like the cake to be tall as opposed to being wider. I can’t wait to try it!
Hi Patricia – Yes, I wish Bundt pans were labeled with sizes. So I poured 2 quarts of water inside and it almost reached the inner rim – where the decorative pattern changes. This is one of those more decorative bundt pans, It’s definitely smaller than my traditional style Bundt pan. Hope that helps!
