2 Year Blogiversary!

I can't believe it's been 2 years today since I've been blogging! To celebrate, Grandma and I whipped up a Texas Sheet Cake to celebrate... Mmmmm!



Texas Sheet Cake
2 cups flour
2 cups sugar
1 cup boiling water
1 stick of butter
1/2 cup of oil
1/2 cup of buttermilk
1 tsp salt
1 tsp baking soda
4 tbps cocoa powder
1 tsp vanilla
2 eggs

Frosting
1 stick of softened butter
1 tsp vanilla
7 tbsp of evaporated milk
1 box of confectioner's sugar
4 tbsp of cocoa powder
1 cup of chopped nuts (optional)

Boil one cup of water, remove from heat. Add stick of butter and oil to pot. Set aside. Blend dry ingredients in one bowl. Mix wet ingredients in another bowl. Slowly combine. Add the water, butter, and oil mixture. Pour into one large floured sheet pan. Bake at 350 for 20 minutes.

For frosting, mix softened butter, vanilla, evaporated milk, cocoa, and slowly add confectioner's sugar with blender until creamy. Add nuts.

Pour frosting onto cake while hot, the frosting will ooze into the cake, but turn out thicker than a glaze.

Bon appetit!
