Directions
Frosted Texas Sheet Cake, This is an extremely moist chocolate/cinnamon cake that tastes almost like fudge! It’s thick, sweet, and perfect with vanilla ice cream or by itself!, I’ve been making this cake for 40 years Take the cake out of the oven 5 minutes before it’s done – 25 minutes in a 9×13 pan [I hope your’e baking this at 400 degrees ] Pour the hot frosting – WITH nuts in it – pecans preferred but I’ve often used walnuts Return it to the oven for the remaining 5 minutes – for 30 minutes total baking time The frosting will bubble and get gooey and seep a little into the cake Let it sit on the counter till cool (Hide it!), My grandmother used to make this cake for my birthday when i was little, and tastes just like it! I made it today but halfed the recipe to make in an 8×8 pan Yum! I also plan to make reviewer Fatima Rose’s variation with the maraschino cherries! That sounds delicious too!!
