Texas Sheet Cake Recipe With Sour Cream
Ingredients
For the Cake:
2 cups all-purpose flour
2 cups sugar
1 teaspoon baking soda
1 teaspoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 cup (2 sticks) butter
4 tablespoons cocoa powder
1 cup water
2 eggs
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 cup sour cream
For the Frosting:
1/2 cup (1 stick) butter
4 tablespoons cocoa powder
6 tablespoons milk
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
3-4 cups powdered sugar
1/2 cup chopped walnuts, optional
Instructions
Preheat oven to 375 degrees F. Grease and flour a 15x10x1-inch baking pan.
In a large bowl, stir together the flour, sugar, baking soda, baking powder, and salt.
In a medium saucepan, melt the butter, cocoa powder, and water over medium heat. Bring to a boil then remove from heat.
Pour the cocoa mixture over the flour mixture and stir to combine.
In a small bowl, whisk together the eggs, vanilla extract, and sour cream. Add to the cocoa mixture and stir until combined. The batter will be very thin.
Pour the batter into the prepared baking pan and bake for 20 to 25 minutes or until a cake tester inserted into the center comes out clean.
While the cake is baking, make the frosting.
In a medium saucepan, combine the butter, cocoa powder, and milk. Bring to a boil over medium heat and stir until the butter is melted and the mixture is smooth.
Remove from heat and stir in the vanilla extract and powdered sugar. The frosting should be thick enough to spread onto the cake. Stir in the walnuts, if using.
Once the cake is done baking, spread the frosting over the warm cake and allow to cool before serving. Enjoy!
