Texas Sheet Cake


Texas Sheet Cake

2 cups flour
2 cups white sugar
2 cubes margarine or butter
1 cup water
4 tbsp cocoa powder
2 eggs, beaten
1 tsp soda
1 tsp vanilla
1/2 cup sour milk (1 tsp white vinegar and then the rest regular milk)
Mix flour and sugar in a large mixing bowl. In a sauce pan bring margarine, water and cocoa to a boil. Pour boiling mixture into flour mixture and mix thoroughly. Add eggs, milk soda and vanilla and mix until very smooth. Batter will be runny. Cook in a large baking sheet (I call it a cookie sheet.) Grease and flour the pan, but don’t use flour use cocoa powder. It works great on chocolate cake or brownies. Bake at 350° for 30-40 minutes. My oven only needs 28-30 minutes so watch it close. (It really depends on the pan you use.) A toothpick will come out clean when it is ready. Let cool and frost with following frosting recipe…

Fudgey Chocolate Frosting

1 cube butter
4 tbsp cocoa powder
5 tbsp milk
3 cups powdered sugar
Bring first three ingredients to a boil. Put powdered sugar in a mixing bowl. Pour boiling mixture into the mixing bowl with the powdered sugar. Mix thoroughly until smooth. Put on cake while still warm so it will spread easily.

That’s it you’re done. Enjoy! (taken from themotherhuddle.com)

2. Combine the cake mix (just the powder), butter and 1/3 cup evaporated milk. Mix well and pour 2/3 of the batter into pan.
3.
Press pecans into batter and bake for 8 to 10 minutes.
4.
In a saucepan over medium heat, combine the caramel and 1/3 cup evaporated milk. Stir until melted and smooth; pour over cooled cake mix.

Sprinkle chocolate chips on top of caramel and top with spoonfuls of remaining cake mix. Bake for additional l5 to l8 minutes; cool and cut.

*I omitted the pecans and it still turned out great! I also found these bags of caramels at Walmart and they melted really quickly.

Brownies- from scratch


Shocking, I know. MarKey put down the box for once and made a treat from scratch. Don't let that word, scratch, scare you like it does me. You might be surprised at how easy and cheap they are, and I bet you already have all the ingredients on hand. I think they taste much better tasting too.

1/2+2 T. Butter of Margarine
1 C Sugar
1 t vanilla
2 Eggs
6 T Cocoa
1/2 C Flour

Cream butter, sugar and vanilla; beat in eggs. Blend in Cocoa. Stir in flour. Pour in an 8X8 pan. Bake at 325 for 30-35 minutes.
