Mint Fudge Cake

Ingredients

• 1 (18.25 ounce) box white cake mix*
• 6 tablespoons Creme de menthe, divided
• 1 can Hershey's fudge topping
• 1 container Cool Whip, thawed

Instructions

1. Bake cake according to package directions replacing 3 tablespoons of water with 3 tablespoons creme de menthe.
2. Let cake cool.
3. Spread cooled cake with 1 can fudge topping.
4. Mix 3 tablespoons creme de menthe with Cool Whip and spread on top of fudge.

Notes

* 18.25 ounce boxes of cake mix have been replaced by 16.5 ounce and 15.25 ounce boxes. To compensate for the volume loss in a 16 ounce box, whisk 6 tablespoons all-purpose flour into the dry cake mix before proceeding with the recipe. To compensate for the volume loss in a 15.25 ounce box, add 1/2 cup + 3 tablespoons all-purpose flour and 1/4 teaspoon baking powder.

Mint Fudge Cake may be decorated with red and green maraschino cherries for the holidays.
