PEPPERMINT FUDGE CAKE
If you like pepppermint, this cake will knock your socks off. It's minty, fudgy, and full of delicious flavor. Amazingly, it's also low fat and completely IBS safe! This recipe is from the cookbook "Eating for IBS" by the wonderful Heather Van Vorous. You can also substitute almond extract for the peppermint for a different taste experience, or just leave out the second extract completely and double the vanilla! This is great with a chocolate or mocha glaze (see my mocha mint glaze!).

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 325°F.

Tips:
- Prepare all ingredients in advance: Before you start baking, make sure you have all the ingredients measured and ready to go. This will help you stay organized and avoid scrambling later on.
- Use high-quality ingredients: The better the ingredients you use, the better your cake will taste. Opt for real butter, pure vanilla extract, and high-quality chocolate.
- Don't overmix the batter: Overmixing the batter can make the cake tough and dense. Mix just until the ingredients are combined.
- Bake the cake in a preheated oven: This will help ensure that the cake bakes evenly.
- Let the cake cool completely before frosting it: This will help prevent the frosting from melting and running off the cake.
