Mint Chocolate Cake

These little guys are so easy to make and yet are sooooo delicious. I always like to experiment in the kitchen, so one Christmas, I came up with this:

Here is what you will need:

• 1 Box Chocolate cake mix, prepared
• 1 box of Chocolate mint candies (such as Andes)
• One tub of any flavor frosting (vanilla or chocolate is usually best)
• 1 crushed candy cane.

You prepare the cake mix as per the directions on the box. Pour half of the prepared mix into a 13 x 9″ pan. Top the bottom layer with the chocolate mint candies, then pour in the rest of the mix. Bake according to cake mix directions. When cooked, and cooled, top with frosting and the crushed candy canes.

*You can also use other candies instead of the mints, if you would prefer. Any type of chocolate, melting candy works great!
