Spray a 10-inch cast-iron skillet with nonstick cooking spray. Prepare the cake mix according to the package's egg white method. Add the peppermint extract and mix to combine.

Add 1/2 cup of the crushed candy canes to the Frosting and fold to combine. Frost the cake with the Peppermint Frosting, then sprinkle the remaining crushed candy over the entire cake. Serve slices with scoops of peppermint ice cream.
