This is the kind of cake that you can really indulge in! I could eat the entire cake by myself if I am not careful! I truly love mint and chocolate together. I grew up loving mint chocolate ice cream and started making minty and chocolatey dessert. which I still love to this day. I don’t get as much of an opportunity to make these types of sweet treats, but when I do I definitely go for it! This is a poke cake that you will absolutely adore. The kids will think its neat and it also tastes super delicious!

Ingredients
- 1 Duncan Hines chocolate cake mix + water, oil, eggs as listed on the box
- 14.5 oz can sweetened condensed milk
- 12.8 oz jar Hershey’s Special Hot Fudge Sauce
- 10 oz package Keebler Fudge Mint Cookies (or Thin Mints, if in season)
- 16 oz container cool whip (whipping cream may be even better)
- 1 Duncan Hines Mint flavor packet
- 1 cup Andes Mint chips
Instructions
- Prepare and bake the cake mix according to directions on package, using a 9×13 baking dish. Allow to cool completely.
- Use the end of a wooden spoon to poke holes evenly across the entire cake (about 20 holes).
- Pour the can of sweetened condensed milk over the cake, trying to fill the holes.
- Heat the hot fudge sauce in a small bowl in the microwave, just enough to soften it. 30-40 seconds is sufficient.
- Crumble half of the cookies into the hot fudge and mix. Spread the cookie/fudge sauce over the cake.
- In a large bowl, whisk together the mint packet and the cool whip (or whipped cream). Spread the whipped topping over the fudge layer.
- Crumble the remaining cookie crumbs and Andes Mint Chips over the top.
- Refrigerate and chill for at least 4 hours, but overnight is best.
- Cut and serve.
