Texas Sheet Cake

I got this recipe from the College Station cookbook my mom gave me a few years back. That is my go to cookbook. For one it has most of my favorite recipes of my mom's and second i know everyone in it which is nice. A very trusted source! This sheet cake is from Meg Anderson.





Recipe

2 c flour
2 c sugar
1 tsp baking soda
2 beaten eggs
1/2 c sour milk
1 tsp vanilla
1/2 c oil
1 stick butter
3 Tbs water

Icing

1 stick butter
4 Tbs cocoa
1/2 cups sour milk
3-4 cups powdered sugar
1 tsp vanilla

Combine flour, sugar and soda in a bowl. Boil butter, oil, cocoa & water, then pour over the dry mixture. Add renaming ingredients and then pour into a greased cookie sheet and bake at 375 degrees for 15-20 minutes.

Boil the butter, cocoa and *sour milk. Add to shifted powder sugar and vanilla, stirring well. Add chopped nuts if desired.

You can use either vinegar or lemon juice to make your milk go sour.

Thanks Meg this was very yummy and super easy to make!

PS If you dont want your icing to look like mine let the cake cool before you frost. Although it was tasty because it melted into the cake. YUM YUM
