1. Preheat the oven to 350°F (180°C). Line a 9-inch square baking pan with parchment paper.
2. In a bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, baking soda and salt.
3. In a large bowl, cream the butter and sugar until light and fluffy. Add the eggs and vanilla and whisk until combined.
4. Add half the flour mixture and mix until combined, then add half the buttermilk. Repeat with the remaining flour and buttermilk.
5. Fold in the finely crushed pistachios until combined.
6. Pour the batter into the prepared pan and bake for 35 to 40 minutes, or until the cake is done.
7. Cool in the pan for 5 minutes, then turn out and cool completely on a wire rack.
8. For the frosting, beat the softened butter until smooth, then add the icing sugar, cream cheese and pistachio paste, and beat until smooth.
9. Once the cake is chilled, spread the frosting over it and sprinkle with chopped pistachios.
10. Refrigerate for at least 3 hours before serving.
