Pistachio Almond Cake

It's my husband's birthday coming up and I wanted to make a cake for him that was different... healthy but still delicious and unique.  I dug through all my recipe books and found the recipe for pistachio and almond cake that I thought I'd try out. It was simple to make was also flourless.

I took a bunch of whole almonds and whole pistachios, blended it all together in our Ninja blender, mixed it with eggs and egg whites and a few other spices and then baked it. To top it off, since I had so much pistachio left over, my husband suggested putting pistachio buttercream on top, which turned out to be the perfect topper.

It was a bit tricky to make because unlike cupcakes and regular, cake, you can't put a toothpick inside to see if it is cooked all the way, nor can you even taste test it. But it turned out perfectly and eveyone loved it.
