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.

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.

Time 2h10m

Yield 12 servings

Number Of Ingredients 17

2 sticks (1 cup) unsalted butter, plus more for the pan
2 cups all-purpose flour
1 3/4 cups granulated sugar
1 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
1/2 cup sour cream
2 teaspoons pure vanilla extract
2 large eggs
1/4 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
1 1/2 cups pecans, chopped
1 1/2 sticks (12 tablespoons) unsalted butter
Pinch of kosher salt
2 tablespoons unsweetened cocoa powder
1/2 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
2 1/2 cups confectioners' sugar
1/3 cup whole milk

Steps:

  • For the cake: Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F; butter the bottom and sides of a 15 1/2-by-10 1/2-inch jelly roll pan.
  • Whisk together the flour, granulated sugar, baking soda, baking powder and salt in a large bowl until combined. Whisk the sour cream, vanilla and eggs in a medium bowl or large liquid measuring cup until smooth. Set aside.
  • Meanwhile, add the butter, cocoa powder and 1 cup water to a medium saucepan and set over medium heat. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the butter is completely melted, about 5 minutes.
  • Pour the melted butter mixture into the flour mixture and stir until combined. Stir in the sour cream mixture in 2 additions until combined. Pour the batter into the prepared pan and spread it into an even layer.
  • Bake until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean, about 20 minutes. Transfer to a rack and let cool slightly in the pan.
  • For the frosting: Combine the pecans, butter and salt in a medium saucepan and place over medium heat. Cook until the butter is melted and the pecans are lightly toasted, about 5 minutes. Stir in the cocoa powder and vanilla and remove from the heat. Whisk in the confectioners' sugar in 2 batches, alternating with the milk and mixing well after each addition.
  • Immediately pour the warm frosting over the warm cake and gently spread to cover. Let the cake cool completely before slicing.
