Texas Sheet Cake

This recipe came from the Home Based Mom blog. I remember my mom making this when I was little so I had to make this even though I rarely eat cake anymore. I love the extra kick of flavor from the vinegar.

Mix together in a bowl and set aside:

2 C flour
2 C sugar
1 tsp salt

Mix together in your mixer:

2 cubes/sticks butter
1/4 C cocoa
2 eggs
1/2 C buttermilk
1 C hot water
1 tsp baking soda
1 tsp vanilla
1 Tbsp vinegar

Mix together. Add dry ingredients and mix well. Pour into a greased cookie sheet. Bake at 350 for 25 minutes

Frosting:

1 cube/stick butter, softened
6 Tbsp milk
1/4 C cocoa
3 3/4 C powdered sugar
1 tsp vanilla
*I also added a teaspoon of Vinegar to the frosting- if I remember correctly, that's what my mom did.

Mix butter, milk and cocoa together. Add powdered sugar and vanilla. Beat well and spread on hot cake as it comes from oven.
