Green swirl cake with rich fudge and whipped cream.
Ingredients:
  • 1 box Betty Crocker™ Super Moist™ White Cake Mix
  • Water, vegetable oil and egg whites called for on cake mix box
  • 2 teaspoons mint extract
  • 12 drops green food color
  • 2 jars (16 oz each) hot fudge topping
  • 1 container (8 oz) Cool Whip frozen whipped topping, thawed
  • 5 drops yellow food color
  • Thin rectangular crème de menthe chocolate candies, unwrapped and cut into pieces, if desired
Instructions:
  • Preheat oven to 350°F (325°F for dark or nonstick pan) and generously spray the bottom of a 13x9-inch pan with baking spray containing flour.
  • Prepare the cake batter according to the package instructions, but enhance it with 1 1/2 teaspoons of refreshing mint extract when adding the water. Set aside 1 cup of the batter. Mix in 3 drops of green food color to the reserved batter, creating a vibrant hue. Pour the remaining batter into the pan and get ready to bake!
  • Spoon the green batter in generous tablespoonfuls into 12 to 14 mounds over the batter in the pan. Use a metal spatula or knife to swirl the batters in S-shaped curves in one fluid motion. Rotate the pan a quarter turn and swirl again for a decorative pattern.
  • Follow the baking instructions on the box for a 13x9-inch pan. Once baked, use a knife to loosen the cake from the sides of the pan. Let it cool completely, approximately 1 hour.
  • Spread the luscious fudge topping smoothly on the cake. Mix whipped topping, 1/2 teaspoon mint extract, 9 drops green food color, and some yellow food color until combined in a bowl. Spread this delightful mixture evenly over the fudge. Top it off with candy pieces for a finishing touch. Keep it covered in the refrigerator.
