- ⅔ cup whole milk
- 1 (3.4 oz) box pistachio pudding

Directions:
- Preheat and Prepare:
Preheat the oven to 350 degrees and grease a 9×13 baking dish. - Mix Cake Batter:
In a large bowl, combine the cake mix, pistachio pudding mix, vegetable oil, eggs, and crushed pineapple with juices. Beat until well combined. - Bake:
Transfer the batter to the prepared baking dish and bake for 30-35 minutes or until an inserted toothpick comes out clean. Allow the cake to cool. - Prepare the Frosting:
In a separate bowl, mix together the second pistachio pudding mix and milk until the mixture thickens. Fold in the thawed cool whip until fully combined. - Frost and Chill:
Frost the cooled cake and chill for 2 hours before serving. Top with chopped pistachios for a delightful crunch, if desired.
