Sheet Cake

Now, as much as my mom makes the peanut butter sheet cake (for everything), it has an EVIL twin....we call this the Chocolate Sheet Cake.....
This recipe ACTUALLY came from my mother's side of the family....go figure!

Ingredients:

1 cup of oleo
4 tbsp. of cocoa}melt together

1 tsp. baking soda
1 tsp. salt
1 tsp. vanilla
1/2 cup of milk
2 cups of flour
2 cups of sugar
1 cup of water
2 eggs

Instructions:

First melt oleo and cocoa together; then mix all ingredients together and pour into prepared sheet cake pan. Bake in oven at 400 degrees for 20 minutes.

Frosting:
1/2 cup of oleo
4 tbsp cocoa}melt together

1 tsp. vanilla
6 tbsp. milk
3 1.2-4cups of powdered sugar.

First melt oleo and cocoa together; then mix all ingredients together (this frosting will be thinner than the peanut butter one, so if you are attempting to make them both; like my mom, just keep that in mind). Spread frosting on cake when removed from the oven. Sprinkle with a handful of milk chocolate chips OR white chocolate chips (the white chocolate gives it a nice contrast). Warm in oven.

Enjoy!

**I also suggest if you are making the cakes at the same time, make the peanut butter one first (because it bakes at a lower temperature) ....that's a tip from the pro (my mom)**
