Preheat the oven to 375 degrees.
Prepare the cake mix as per package directions, then pour the mixture into an ungreased 10-inch tube
pan, and bake for about 30 minutes. Check with toothpick and or check for springiness when cake is touched.
Toothpick should be clean, or cake should bounce back when touched. If not, cook an additional five or ten
minutes until it is done.
Remove from the oven and immediately turn the pan upside down on a cooling rack, leaving the cake in
the pan. Let it cool for about an hour. When cooled, remove it from the pan and cut it into thee lengthwise
sections.
Put the Peppermint ice cream into a large bowl for mixing. Try not to eat any of it yet. Add the
pecans and the mint cookies and mix everything together well. Put that mixture into the freezer for five minutes
to firm up.
Put a section of the angel food cake on a section of aluminum foil that is big enough to
cover the whole cake when everything is completed. Take the ice cream mixture out of the freezer and spread a third
of it over the top of that section of cake. Do this two more times until all sections and all ice cream mixture is
used up. Cover the cake and ice cream combination tightly with the aluminum foil and put it into the freezer for
two hours before serving. Let it sit outside of the freezer for ten minutes before slicing to serve. Store the
remaining part (if any) in the freezer in freezer wrap.
