Chocolate Sheet Cake I Recipes

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease and flour a 10x15 inch jellyroll pan. In a large bowl, sift together the flour, sugar, baking soda, cinnamon and salt. Set aside.
• In a saucepan combine 1/2 cup margarine, shortening, 1/4 cup cocoa and water. Bring to a boil and cook for 1 minute. Pour the liquid mixture over the flour, sugar mixture; stir well. Blend in eggs and buttermilk.
• Pour batter into prepared pan. Bake in the preheated oven for 30 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of the cake comes out clean. Let cake cool 10 minutes, then frost while still warm.
• To make the Frosting: In a saucepan combine 1/2 cup margarine, milk and 1/4 cup cocoa. Bring to a boil and cook for 1 minute. Remove from heat and stir in vanilla. Mix in confectioners' sugar. Pour over warm cake

Steps:

• For the cake: Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
• In a large bowl, combine the flour, sugar and salt. Stir together and set aside.
• In another bowl, mix the buttermilk, baking soda, vanilla and eggs. Mix with a fork and set aside.
• In a medium saucepan, melt the butter and add the cocoa. Whisk together to combine. Meanwhile, bring 1 cup water to a boil. When the butter is melted, pour the boiling water in the pan. Allow to bubble for a moment, then turn off the heat. Pour the chocolate mixture into the flour mixture. Stir together for a moment to cool the chocolate, then pour in the egg mixture. Stir together until smooth, then pour into an ungreased jelly roll pan (or rimmed baking sheet) and bake for 20 minutes.
• While the cake is baking, make the icing: Melt the butter in a saucepan over medium-low heat. Add the cocoa powder and stir until smooth. Add the milk, vanilla and powdered sugar. Stir together. Dump in the pecans and stir until well combined.
• Immediately after removing the cake from the oven, pour the warm icing over the top. You'll want to avoid doing much spreading, so try to distribute it evenly as you pour.

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.

• 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.

Bake at 325° for 25-30 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean. Cool on a wire rack., For frosting, in a small saucepan, combine the sugar, milk, butter and cocoa. Bring to a boil; cook and stir for 1 minute. Remove from the heat. Transfer to a bowl; stir occasionally until completely cooled. Beat until smooth; spread over cake.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
• Prepare cake pans with Crisco and lightly dust with flour. I prefer the Wilton Quick Release product instead of the traditional Crisco/Flour prep.
• I prefer to make my own sour milk. I think the vinegar does something to the recipe and makes it more moist or something. To do so, in a glass measuring cup, add 2 tbs of distilled vinegar then add your milk (I used skim milk) and measure to 2 cups. Whisk, and let stand for 20 minutes. I whisk again before adding it to my mixing bowl.
• Put all ingredients into a mixing bowl. With the PADDLE attachment, mix together for 2 minutes. Scrape down the side and bottom of the bowl to ensure all ingredients are mixed well.
• FOR SHEET CAKES: Pour into your pan and bake for 25-30 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of the cake comes out with moist crumbs on it, or use the Wilton's baking guide.
• FOR ROUND CAKES: Pour into your prepared pan, bake for 35-40 minutes or use the Wilton's baking guide, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of the cake comes out with moist crumbs on it (not gooey uncooked batter).
• FOR CUPCAKES: Pour into tins, bake for approximately 18 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the center of the cupcake comes out with moist crumbs on it (not gooey uncooked batter).
• For a deeper, richer chocolate taste, reduce the buttermilk by 1/4 cup and replace it with a 1/4 cup of brewed coffee. I personally think with 1 cup of cocoa, the recipe already has a rich chocolate taste.
• I like to experiment with the extracts. If making a filling such as raspberry, replace the vanilla with raspberry extract. Experiment with different flavors and combinations for a different taste. Chocolate cake with a hint of orange flavoring is to die for.
