After Dinner Mint Cake



These are lovely, we as a family, but particularly Sophie and I love mint and chocolate, so when I saw this in Rachel Allen’s Cake  (Collins 2012) - it was a must make!
The chopped up After Eight (mints) in the cake sort of sink to the bottom of the squares and give a gooey sticky layer.  I change the topping a bit by omitting fresh mint leaves and lemon juice and adding in more mint extract and a tablespoon of water. I also topped them simply with a quarter of an After Eight chocolate. Easy, but effective. :)    Must make these again soon!
