Directions
Chocolate Sheet Cake, This is our favorite chocolate cake It is rich and moist Note: If you don’t have the buttermilk on hand, put about 1 teaspoon of vinegar into 1/2 cup milk and let it sit for 15-20 minutes ***Note: if you don’t have the Butter Flavor Crisco, just increase the 1/2 cup butter to 1 cup of butter and omit the Crisco I’ve made it both ways and it is great either way , This is the closest I have come to duplicating a cake my mother used to make The cake is GREAT! I have made it several times now and I have tweaked it a bit for my family’s taste I add 7 Tablespoons of cocoa to the cake My family likes frosting, so I increase the frosting by half and I also add additional cocoa to the frosting , Hit the spot! I didn’t have any vanilla, and i added about 1/4tsp of nutmeg for some additional flavor Instead of the icing, I just used an icing sugar glaze Thanks for this recipe!
