My husband works for a mint farmer, so I'm always looking for recipes with mint in them. I received this recipe at my bridal shower. My friend wrote Easy and pretty on the top corner of the recipe card - and it's so true. Ingredients:
1 package chocolate cake mix (regular size) |
frosting: |
1/2 cup butter, softened |
2 cups confectioners' sugar |
1 tablespoon water |
1/2 teaspoon peppermint extract |
3 drops green food coloring |
topping: |
1-1/2 cups milk chocolate chips |
6 tablespoons butter, softened |
1/4 teaspoon peppermint extract |
Directions:
1. Prepare cake batter according to package directions, using a greased 15-in. x 10-in. x 1-in. baking pan.
2. Bake at 350° for 25-30 minutes or until a toothpick inserted near the center comes out clean. Cool on a wire rack.
3. In a large bowl, combine the frosting ingredients until smooth. Spread over cooled cake.
4. For topping, in a microwave, melt chocolate chips and butter; stir until smooth. Stir in extract. Spread over frosting. Refrigerate until set. Yield: 20-24 servings.
