# Instructions:
01 -
Get your oven heated up to 175°C (350°F). Prep an 8-inch round pan by greasing it well, then cover the bottom with parchment. Toss the pistachios into a food processor and grind them until they're super fine.
02 -
In a big bowl, mix up the powdered sugar and ground pistachios. Toss in the eggs, vanilla, a tiny bit of salt, and some baking powder. Stir until it's smooth and everything's mixed through.

Put the batter in the greased pan. Bake for 25-30 minutes, or until you stick a toothpick in and it comes out clean. Let it sit in the pan for 10 minutes, then pop it onto a wire rack to cool completely.

Heat the cream over medium in a small saucepan until it's just about to simmer. Take it off, pour in the chocolate chips and butter, and stir until it's all melted and glossy.

After the cake's cooled all the way, pour the ganache over the top so it drips down the sides. Let it set up a bit before cutting into it.
