How To Make chocolate mint crunch cake

  • Step 1
    Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
  • Step 2
    To make the cake, coat two 9-inch round cake pans with cooking spray. Add chopped chocolate covered almonds to each cake pan and spread evenly.
  • Step 3
    In a large bowl, combine the cake mix, water, oil, eggs and pudding mix. Beat at medium speed for 3 minutes.
  • Step 4
    Add mint extract and beat again at low speed for 30 seconds until blended. Fold in the chopped Nestle Crunch bars and mint chocolate chips.
  • Step 5
    Pour the cake batter into prepared cake pans. Bake for 30 minutes or until a toothpick inserted the center comes out clean. Cool completely for 10 minutes.
  • Step 6
    To make the filling, combine all ingredients in a small bowl and whisk well until blended. Set aside.
  • Step 7
    To make the frosting, combine all ingredients in a medium bowl and mix together for 2 minutes until combined.
  • Step 8
    Place a first layer cake on a plate. Top with the filling and spread evenly. Place second cake layer on top. Frost the cake on the top and sides with the frosting.
