I followed this recipe with some modifications and used it for a Creme de Menthe cake that I took to a large gathering. The cake received rave reviews and I have been asked to make it again!

You just can't go wrong with this recipe. It has been around for a very long time and we all know why. It's pretty simple to prepare and it never fails to please. The only problem I run into when preparing it is, I can't seem to keep out of it!

I hadn't made a texas sheet cake before but needed something for a group gathering. This was delicious and quite easy to make! I will make it again soon!

I made this for a family BBQ and everyone loved it. I plan to make it again and take it to work. I know my coworkers will be all over it. =)

I love this recipe, my grandma has made it since I was a little girl for family functions since it feeds a lot. Plain is great my grandma mixes it up by puting half a package of mini marshmallows on top of cake and thining the frosting down with a cup less of powdered sugar and then topping the cake. The frosting hardens a bit over the marshmallows and its so pretty. It makes if taste like a rocky road cake. She also makes if using buttermilk for sour cream, but they are interchangeable I don't notice a difference when I don't have one or the other.

This was very good, but I wish the flavor of the cake was just a tad richer. It melts-in-your-mouth.

Best chocolate cake ever.. Kids loved it and husband (who is not a fan of cake) loved it even more.

I didn't change the recipe for the cake at all. However I used pecans instead of walnuts for the icing. This IS a Texas sheet cake, after all. I did not have a 10x15 pan so I used a 13x9 pan and baked it an additional 15 minutes and it came out fine.
