With its pretty pink layer and fabulous mint flavor, this is a great holiday dessert. Because I work full-time, I like the fact that it calls for a convenient cake mix. —Lisa Varner, Charleston, South Carolina

This recipe was very tasty, however, I don't know how anyone was able to get it out of the pan. I made it twice and both times, the crushed candies that were added to the batter, melted to the bottom of the pan and stuck there.

Delicious! A pretty addition to Christmas dessert table.

Far better than expected. I used peppermint chips for baking instead of crushed peppermints and left out the peppermint extract and it was very good.

My cake came out fantastic! Did not fall apart when taking out of pan. I did make my peppermint pieces much smaller and would make them even smaller next time. Love the peppermint.

To make the icing drizzle, I had to add another tablespoon or so of milk. This addition produced a cake just like the pix!As I am aware some people dislike the peppermint flavor, I placed whole mints around the platter. Alas, for some people even this provided no clue until tasted!!

I made this for a Christmas potluck and got rave reviews! It was easy to make and perfect for the holidays. I did chop my peppermints a little smaller for the top than it shows in the picture. I added a little more milk to the glaze as it was a little thick to drizzle. No problems with sticking or with the ribbon falling to the bottom of the pan. I will definately make this one again!

I don't know what I did wrong. Maybe it wasn't cool enough when I removed it from the pan. It fell apart. Smells great and my kids will eat but now I have to bake something else for our party!

I added more peppermint by accident and it was still wonderful. My family liked and said could make again.
