PERFECT TEXAS SHEET CAKE
My mom always talks about her memories of eating Texas sheet cake when she was little. So I made her this for her birthday and she loved it. I used half of the amount of powdered sugar in the icing to make it less sweet. While the cake bakes make the icing.

CLASSIC TEXAS SHEET CAKE
If you love chocolate, and we mean really truly love, then this classic Texas sheet cake is exactly what your sweet tooth craves. Between the scratch-made cake and the decadent homemade frosting, this dessert is a chocolate lover's dream come true. Unlike most cakes, this tender-crumbed delight should be frosted when it's still hot-no need to let it cool. Pour on the sticky, sweet pecan-flecked frosting and watch it spread into a gloriously glossy blanket that'll keep your cake moist and fresh tasting for as long as it lasts.
