  2. STEP 2

    Combine all cake ingredients in bowl. Beat until well mixed. Pour batter into prepared pan. Bake 20-25 minutes or until toothpick inserted in center comes out clean. Run knife around sides of pan to loosen edges. Cool completely.

  3. STEP 3

    Cut cake crosswise into 3 equal (10x5-inch) pieces while in pan. Place pan into freezer 30-40 minutes or until cake is firm.

  4. STEP 4

    Combine whipping cream, powdered sugar and desired amount of mint flavoring in bowl; beat until stiff peaks form. Gently stir in1/2 cup lemon pie filling.

  5. STEP 5

    Remove cake from freezer; place 1 cake piece, lifting with wide spatula, onto rectangular serving tray. Spread half (about 1/2 cup) of remaining pie filling over cake. Spread 1/2 cup whipped cream mixture over lemon filling. Top with second cake piece; spread with remaining pie filling and 1/2 cup whipped cream mixture. Top with third cake piece; spread remaining whipped cream mixture over sides and top of torte. Refrigerate 6-8 hours or until set.

  6. STEP 6

    Garnish with fresh mint and lemon slices before serving. Cut torte with long, sharp serrated knife. Store refrigerated.

Tip #1

Use a deep bowl when whipping cream to prevent spatters.
