Texas Sheet Cake

  • 1

Ingredients

  • 2 cups flour
  • 2 cups white sugar
  • 2 cubes margarine or butter
  • 1 cup water
  • 4 tbsp cocoa powder
  • 2 eggs, beaten
  • 1 tsp soda
  • 1 tsp vanilla
  • 1/2 cup sour milk (1 tsp white vinegar and then the rest regular milk)

Preparation

Step 1

Mix flour and sugar in a large mixing bowl. In a sauce pan bring margarine, water and cocoa to a boil. Pour boiling mixture into flour mixture and mix thoroughly. Add eggs, milk soda and vanilla and mix until very smooth. Batter will be runny. Cook in a large baking sheet (I call it a cookie sheet.) Grease and flour the pan, but don’t use flour use cocoa powder. It works great on chocolate cake or brownies. Bake at 350° for 30-40 minutes. My oven only needs 28-30 minutes so watch it close. (It really depends on the pan you use.) A toothpick will come out clean when it is ready. Let cool and frost with following frosting recipe…
