    List of Ingredients




    Grasshopper Fudge Cake from Kathy


    1 box white cake mix
    1 1/4 cups water
    1/3 cup vegetable oil
    2 tsp mint extract
    3 egg white
    12 drops green food color
    2 jars (16 oz each) hot fudge topping
    1 container (8 oz.) whipped topping, thawed
    5 drops yellow food color
    Andes candies cut into pieces, if desired

    Recipe





    Preheat oven to 350 F. (or 325 F. for dark or nonstick pan).
    Spray bottom only of 13 X 9-inch pan with baking spray with flour.

    Make cake mix as directed on box using water, oil, 1 1/2 teaspoons of the mint extract and the egg whites; reserve 1 cup of batter. Stir 3 drops of the green food color into the reserved batter and set aside; pour remaining batter into the pan.

    Drop green batter by generous tablespoonfuls randomly in 12 to 14 mounds onto the batter in the pan; cut through batters with metal spatula or knife in S-shaped curves in one continuous motion.
    Turn pan 1/4 turn; repeat cutting for swirled design.

    Bake 28 to 33 minutes or until toothpick inserted in center comes out clean; run knife around side of the pan to loosen the cake; cool completely, about 1 hour.

    Carefully spread the fudge topping evenly over the cake.
    In a medium bowl, stir whipped topping, remaining 1/2 teaspoon extract, remaining 9 drops of green food color and the yellow food color until blended; spread whipped topping mixture evenly over fudge. Garnish with candy pieces, if desired; store covered in refrigerator.
