CHOCOLATE SHEET CAKE: Retro Ad & Recipe
I'm very partial to Chocolate Sheet Cakes because they're so easy to make and feed a large group. When I was younger and thinner, I worked at a school where Chocolate Sheet Cake was made fresh every day using real butter and high quality ingredients. That was my lunch, along with a small carton of milk. I was saving my pennies, and I didn't put on weight. Those were the days! The recipe below is very similar to the one the cook used at the school. I love this Retro Recipe and Ad from Eagle Brand. Definitely use butter, not margarine. FYI: A sheet cake is a cake baked in a large, flat rectangular pan such as a jellyroll pan or sheet pan. A sheet cake is a single layer cake that is usually frosted.
