Eagle Brand Chocolate Sheet Cake Recipes

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350. In small saucepan, melt 1 cup margarine; stir in 1/4 cup cocoa, then add water. Bring to a boil; remove from heat.
• In large mixing bowl combine flour, brown sugar, baking soda, cinnamon and salt. Add cocoa mixture; beat well. Stir in 1/3 cup Eagle Brand, eggs and vanilla.
• Pour into greased 15x10 inch jellyroll pan. Bake 15 minutes or until cake springs back when lightly touched.
• In small saucepan melt remaining 1/4 cup margarine; add remaining 1/4 cup cocoa and remaining Eagle Brand. Stir in confectioners sugar and nuts. Spread on warm cake.
• (CHOCOLATE MOCHA SHEET CAKE: Add 1 tablespoon instant coffee with cocoa to cake; add 1 tablespoon instant coffee with cocoa to frosting.).

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.
