Our Test Kitchen cut half of the fat from the recipe Kristi Wells of Raleigh, North Carolina originally sent. The result, however, is nothing short of delicious. In fact, our tasting panel couldn't get enough of the moist chocolate cake and rich icing.

MAKEOVER CHOCOLATE TEXAS SHEET CAKE

From the magazine, "Taste of Home, Recipe Makeovers" Vol. 4, 2006. One of my most favorite cakes, but healthier for us. When doing a search, I could not find one here. Note: I like to spread the frosting on the cake while it is still a little warm. You should know that the test kitchen used Land O'Lakes light stick butter and Splenda blend.
