This is for Arvilla looking for Texas Sheet Cake. I got this from my
mom; it is easy and so good! Mom and I both have frozen it with good
results.
Texas Sheet Cake
Grease and flour a jelly roll pan with high rims. Set oven to 400.
Sift together:
2 c. flour & 2 c. sugar (have not tired Splenda) and put in a large
bowl. In a saucepan put 1 stick margarine, 1/2 c. cooking oil, 4 T
cocoa and 1 c. water. Bring to a boil and pour over flour/sugar
mixture. Add 1/2 buttermilk, 2 eggs, slightly beaten, 1 t. cinnamon,
1 t. soda and 1 tsp. vanilla. Mix together with the other
ingredients and pour into pan. Bake 15-20 minutes.
Frosting:
In a saucepan put 1 stick margarine, 4 T cocoa, 6 T milk. Bring to a
boil; remove from heat and add 1 box powdered sugar, 1 T vanilla and
1 c. chopped nuts. Spread on top of cake while cake and frosting are
still warm.
The last time I made this, the frosting spilled out over the sides;
I made the sides a little higher with some tin foil.
