CREME DE MENTHE CAKE I
This quick recipe uses regular cake mix, any brand, and any type of whipped topping. It is a great dessert for after dinner, or anytime and especially a treat for St. Patrick's Day (easy way to get something "green"). You can use creme de menthe flavoring if you don't have the actual liqueur.

COOLING CREME DE MENTHE CAKE
My absolute favorite cake of all time! Always a must to make for St. Patrick's Day only because of the color and it tastes great after the corned beef and cabbage.

Great Cake for the Holiday's. It has a mild mint flavor, this one is always a hit at any function. I have even converted this into cupcakes..you have to do a few different steps in order to make them..but oh man..they are worth it. I have made this cake a dozen times, next time I will be sure to post a picture. Picture...
