The Best Texas Sheet Cake
The Best Texas Sheet Cake (A Classic Family Favorite)
Texas Sheet Cake is a rich, thin chocolate cake that is unbelievably soft and moist, topped with a warm, fudgy chocolate icing and crunchy pecans. It practically melts in your mouth with every bite.
I’ve been making this recipe for over 50 years, and it truly is the best Texas Sheet Cake I have ever tasted. I first found it in a cookbook put together by the hospital staff where I worked as an RN. Since then, it has been my go-to recipe for family gatherings, potlucks, and covered dish dinners—and it always gets the sweetest compliments.
