Watergate Cake image

I made this cake for St. Patrick's Day one year, and it has been a favorite ever since. I didn't have coconut and the glazed cherries, so I used slivered almonds, and chocolate sprinkles, I even used Chocolate cake mix. The pistachio pudding topping with the chocolate cake went very well.
