Description

This sheet cake is very rich and delicious. I make it too often.

Ingredients

  • 2 cups Flour
  • 2 cups Sugar
  • 2-½ teaspoons Baking Soda
  • ½ cups Cocoa
  • ½ teaspoons Salt
  • 1 cup Oil
  • 1 cup Hot Water
  • 1 cup Buttermilk
  • 1 teaspoon Vanilla
  • 2 whole Eggs
  • _____
  • FOR THE ICING:
  • 1 stick Butter
  • 6 teaspoons Milk
  • 1 pound Powdered Sugar
  • ½ cups Cocoa
  • 1 teaspoon Vanilla

Preparation

Mix all of your dry ingredients in a large bowl. Then add the oil, water, buttermilk, eggs, and vanilla. Spread in an ungreased pan and cook at 350 degrees for twenty minutes. You will want to use a sheet cake pan! Mine is about 12×17 and my cakes are only an inch deep. I don’t think this cake is as good when it’s thick (I tried it in a 9×13). My oven is old and awful, so I usually only bake mine for fifteen minutes. My point is, check this cake often so you don’t dry it out!

As your cake is cooling, throw together the icing.

In a pan melt the butter with the milk. Bring this mixture to a boil and add the mixture to the powdered sugar, cocoa, and vanilla. Blend until smooth and spread the deliciousness over the now-cooled cake. Enjoy!

This is a great cake recipe. My recipe shows to add one teaspoon of cinnamon to the mix. Really gives a little different twist. I to make this recipe way to often. Can’t beat it!
