Granny Grants Texas Sheet Cake Recipes

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease and flour a 10x15-inch cake pan.
• Combine butter, water, and cocoa powder for cake in a saucepan over medium heat. Cook until butter has melted and mixture comes to a boil. Remove from the heat and cool slightly.
• Meanwhile, mix flour, sugar, and salt together in a large bowl. Beat buttermilk, eggs, baking soda, and vanilla extract together in a separate bowl.
• Add melted butter mixture to the flour mixture, then add buttermilk-egg mixture and beat until thoroughly combined. Pour into the prepared cake pan.
• Bake in the preheated oven until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean, about 20 minutes. Remove cake from the oven and cool on a wire rack for 5 minutes.
• Meanwhile, combine butter, milk, cocoa powder, and vanilla extract for the frosting in a saucepan over medium heat. Stir until butter melts, then stir in powdered sugar. Spread frosting over the warm cake.

Steps:

• 1. Combine flour and sugar in a bowl. Set aside.
• 2. Combine cocoa, Crisco, butter and water in a heavy saucepan; then bring to a boil.

• 5. Bake in a 15 1/2- by 17-inch pan (jellyroll pan) at 375 degrees for 20 minutes.
• 6. After cake has been in the oven for 10 minutes, start making the frosting: melt cocoa, milk and butter on stove, using the same pot (cleaned) as before. Bring to a boil. Remove from heat.
• 7. Add powdered sugar (try to beat out any lumps) and vanilla. Add nuts (if using). Pour hot onto hot cake (this is VERY important!).
• 8. Enjoy!
