AVOCADO PISTACHIO POUND CAKE WITH LEMON GLAZE
This cake feels to me 100 percent Californian, the land of abundant avocados. Use a good-quality avocado, and make sure it's not too ripe--just ripe enough to be sweet, and bright green where the flesh meets the skin.

Steps:
- Make the cake: Position a rack in the center of your oven and preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Butter a 9-by-5-inch loaf pan and line the bottom and long sides with parchment paper, leaving a 1/2-inch overhang.
- Sift the flour, baking powder and baking soda into a mixing bowl. Add the ground pistachios and salt and whisk to combine. Set aside.
- In the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the whisk attachment, beat the sugar and eggs together on medium speed until the eggs loosen, then slowly stream in the oil until it emulsifies. Continue to beat until the mixture is very light in color and creamy, about 2 minutes. Add the avocado, sour cream and zest and beat just until combined. Scrape down the sides and bottom of the bowl. Incorporate the flour mixture in three additions, mixing on low speed after each addition just until no bits of dry flour remain.
- Transfer the batter to the prepared loaf pan and lightly rap the pan on the counter to dislodge any air pockets in the batter. Bake for about 1 hour, until a cake tester inserted into the center of the cake comes out with just a few moist crumbs attached. Allow the cake to cool completely in its pan.
- While the cake cools, make the glaze: Sift the confectioners' sugar into a small mixing bowl. Add the lemon zest, ground pistachios and 2 tablespoons of the lemon juice and mix until incorporated. Add the remaining 1 tablespoon lemon juice and mix until the thickness of the glaze is similar to runny honey. If you want a thinner consistency, add additional lemon juice or water 1 teaspoon at a time and whisk until combined.
- Set a wire rack over a parchment-lined baking sheet and turn the cake out onto the rack. Pour the glaze over the top. Decorate the cake with candied lemon zest, edible flowers and toasted pistachios, if desired. Let the glaze set on the cake for 20 minutes before cutting. This cake keeps well in a sealed container at room temperature for 1 week.
PISTACHIO CUPCAKES WITH GHASTLY GREEN GLAZE
A swarm of tiny chocolate frogs makes a delightfully deranged scene (perhaps they escaped from some sweet-toothed witch's cauldron). Here they top moist pistachio cupcakes iced with two shades of green. Make a batch for a Halloween party and then watch as the treats leap off the table.

Steps:
- Cupcakes: Preheat oven to 325 degrees. Line 36 cups of standard muffin tins with paper liners. Coarsely chop 3/4 cup pistachios, and reserve. In a food processor, grind remaining pistachios to a paste.
- With an electric mixer on medium-high speed, beat butter, cream cheese, and pistachio paste until fluffy, about 3 minutes. Gradually add sugar; beat until smooth, scraping sides of bowl as needed. Add eggs, 1 at a time, beating until each is incorporated, and scraping sides of bowl as needed. Beat in vanilla. Reduce speed to low. Add flour and salt, beating just until combined. Fold in chopped pistachios by hand.
- Divide batter among lined cups, filling each almost three-quarters full. Bake, rotating tins halfway through, until a cake tester inserted in centers comes out clean, about 30 minutes. Transfer tins to wire racks to cool completely. (Cupcakes can be stored up to 1 day at room temperature, or frozen up to 2 months, in airtight containers.)
- Glaze: In a medium bowl, whisk together confectioners' sugar and milk until smooth and combined. Transfer half to another bowl. For lighter green glaze (base color), add 4 drops Moss Green and 2 drops Brown food coloring to one bowl; stir to combine, adding more of each color as needed to achieve desired shade. For darker green glaze (top color), add 4 drops Juniper Green, 2 drops Royal Blue, and 1 drop Brown food coloring to other bowl; stir and adjust until desired shade is reached. Use immediately.
- To finish, place cupcakes on a wire rack set over a rimmed baking sheet. Spoon lighter glaze over each; let set until no longer tacky, 30 to 60 minutes. Drizzle cupcakes with darker glaze, allowing lighter glaze to show around edges; let set before decorating with chocolate frogs and serving.
REAL PISTACHIO CUPCAKES
St. Patrick would certainly give his approval. Because these cupcakes are the real deal! No pudding mixes here, just roasted pistachios. A wonderfully not-too-sweet pale green cupcake that is sure to please. Easy and quick to make, too!

Steps:
- Heat oven to 160C/140C fan/gas 3 and line a 12-hole muffin tin with cases. Put 85g pistachios into a food processor with about half the sugar, then whizz until very finely chopped. Tip into a large mixing bowl with the remaining sugar, butter, eggs, flour and milk and beat until smooth. Divide between cases, then bake on a low shelf for 22-25 mins until a skewer poked in comes out clean. Cool on a wire rack.
- For the icing, mix just enough water into the icing sugar to get a very thick but still runny icing - just add 1 tbsp of water at a time. Stir in enough food colouring to give a pretty, pale green colour. If any cakes poke above the top of the cases, trim with a small knife, or scoop out with a teaspoon - being very careful not to release any of the case from the sides of the cake. Put a generous spoonful of icing on each cake and let it gently spread to cover. Chop the remaining pistachios and scatter these over with a pinch of edible glitter. Set, then serve.
