How to make

STEP 1

Heat oven to 350°F. Grease 12-cup Bundt® pan or 10-inch angel food cake (tube) pan; sprinkle with unsweetened cocoa.
STEP 2

Combine all cake ingredients except white chocolate in bowl. Beat at low speed 30 seconds. Beat at medium speed, scraping bowl occasionally, until well mixed. Stir in white chocolate.
STEP 3

Pour batter into prepared pan. Bake 40-50 minutes or until toothpick inserted in center comes out clean. Cool 15 minutes; remove from pan. Cool completely.
STEP 4

Combine powdered sugar, 1 tablespoon butter, 1/2 teaspoon peppermint extract and enough milk for desired glazing consistency in bowl. Beat at low speed until powdered sugar is moistened. Increase speed to medium; beat until creamy. Drizzle glaze over cooled cake. Sprinkle with crushed candy.
