Pistachio Pudding Cake


We had a friend over for dinner a few weeks ago, and at one point he started raving about his favorite dessert of all time.  It's called a Pistachio Pudding Cake, and it was new to me.  His mom made it for him a lot as a kid, and it's something he thinks about once in awhile and then starts craving like mad.  I had on my to-do list to make him one, and I finally got around to it.  Of course, I knew nothing about making this particular cake, but once I googled it I found there are a bunch of recipes out there.    I chose this one, and while I never actually tasted it (it's probably rude to give someone a present with a giant bite missing?), he said it was delicious.  Oh and I definitely stuck my finger in the frosting, don't judge.  What childhood desserts do you crave the most?
