Categories     vegetarian    Christmas    baking    dessert

Total Time 1 hours 30 minutes

Prep Time 10 minutes

Cook Time 30 minutes

Yield 12 servings

Number Of Ingredients 9

1 (16-oz.) box devil’s food cake mix, plus ingredients called for on box
1 c. Andes mints, plus more for garnish
1 c. heavy cream
2 c. chocolate chips
1 c. butter, softened
5 c. powdered sugar
1 tsp. peppermint extract
3 tbsp.  heavy cream
6 drops green gel food coloring (optional)

Steps:

  • Bake two 9" round layers of chocolate cake according to box instructions. Let cool completely.
  • Make ganache: In a large saucepan over medium heat, bring heavy cream to a simmer until tiny bubbles form around the edges. Remove from heat and add chocolate chips, whisking until combined. Let mixture cool until it reaches a spreadable consistency, at least 30 minutes, before frosting cake.
  • Meanwhile, make buttercream: In a large bowl using a hand mixer, cream together butter, powdered sugar, and peppermint extract until light and fluffy. Add cream and green food coloring and stir until evenly combined.
  • Top 1 cake layer with buttercream, then place the second cake layer on top of it. 
  • Top with ganache. You can either leave the sides of the cake naked or frost all of the sides with ganache, as seen in the video.
  • Decorate with Andes mints.

  • Just before serving, place the marquise in the freezer for 10 mins to make it easier to slice. Place the tin, bottomside up, on a serving plate, slide off the tin, then peel away the cling film. If you have a blowtorch, quickly run the flame over the surface of the marquise to give it a glossy sheen. Alternatively, dip a palette knife in boiling water and smooth the surface that way. Use a serrated knife dipped in boiling water to cut the marquise into slices.
