Tips:
- Use fresh mint. Fresh mint leaves will give your cake the best flavor. If you can't find fresh mint, you can use dried mint, but it won't be as flavorful.
- Don't overmix the batter. Overmixing the batter will make your cake tough. Mix just until the ingredients are combined.
- Bake the cake until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. If the toothpick comes out with batter on it, the cake needs to bake longer.
- Let the cake cool completely before frosting it. If you frost the cake while it's still warm, the frosting will melt and slide off.
- Store the cake in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days. You can also freeze the cake for up to 2 months.
