Texas Sheet Cake Recipe: Easy, Moist & Delicious!

Ingredients

• 2 cups all-purpose flour
• 2 cups white sugar
• 1 teaspoon baking soda
• 0.5 teaspoon salt
• 0.5 cup sour cream
• 2 eggs eggs
• 1 cup butter
• 1 cup water
• 5 tablespoons unsweetened cocoa powder
• 6 tablespoons milk
• 5 tablespoons unsweetened cocoa powder
• 0.5 cup butter
• 4 cups confectioners' sugar
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
• 1 cup chopped walnuts

Instructions

1. Get all of your ingredients ready.
2. Preheat your oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease and flour a 10x15-inch jelly roll pan to prevent sticking.
3. For the cake: In a large mixing bowl, combine the flour, sugar, baking soda, and salt. Mix in the sour cream and eggs until well combined.
4. Melt the butter in a saucepan over low heat. Add the water and cocoa powder, stirring to combine. Bring the mixture to a gentle boil, then remove from the heat.
5. Let the cocoa mixture cool slightly. Then, pour it into the flour and egg mixture, blending until smooth. Pour the batter into the prepared pan.
6. Bake in the preheated oven for about 20 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. While the cake bakes, prepare the icing: In a large saucepan, combine milk, cocoa powder, and butter over medium heat.
7. Bring the icing to a boil, then take it off the heat. Add the confectioners' sugar and vanilla, folding in the walnuts until everything is well mixed.
8. While the cake is still warm, spread the icing evenly over the top.
9. Slice, serve, and enjoy your delicious Texas sheet cake!
