Directions:
- MAKE CAKE (and it couldn't be easier, just don't overbeat)
- Heat oven to 350°F. Grease 2 (9-inch) round cake pans. Line each pan with 9-inch round piece waxed or parchment paper; grease paper. Set aside.
- Combine all cake ingredients in large bowl. Beat at medium speed, scraping bowl often, until smooth.
- Pour batter evenly into prepared pans. Bake for 20 to 25 minutes or until toothpick inserted in center comes out clean. Cool 10 minutes; remove from pans. Remove waxed paper. Cool completely.
- MAKE FILLING
- Combine chilled whipping cream and 1 1/2 teaspoons mint extract in small bowl. Beat at high speed, scraping bowl often, until soft peaks form. Continue beating, gradually adding 2 tablespoons sugar, until stiff peaks form. Reserve 1/2 cup filling for garnish; refrigerate.
- ASSEMBLE
- Cut each cake layer horizontally in half using serrated knife. To assemble torte, place one split cake layer on serving plate; spread with 1/3 filling. Repeat with remaining cake layers and filling, ending with cake layer. Refrigerate torte at least 1 hour.
- MAKE GLAZE
- Melt 2 tablespoons butter in 1-quart saucepan; stir in chocolate chips and corn syrup. Cook over low heat, stirring constantly, until chocolate chips are melted (2 to 3 minutes). Remove from heat; stir in 1/4 teaspoon mint extract. Spread glaze over top of torte, allowing glaze to drizzle down sides. Garnish with reserved 1/2 cup filling and mint leaves, if desired. Refrigerate until serving time.
- VARIATION:
- Chocolate Mocha Torte: Omit 1 1/2 teaspoons mint extract in filling and 1/4 teaspoon mint extract in glaze. Add 3 tablespoons coffee-flavored liqueur to filling and 1 teaspoon coffee-flavored liqueur to glaze.
