Chocolate Sheet Cake T & T
Mix together 2 C. flour and 2 C. sugar. Bring to rapid boil - 1 stick of butter, 1/2 c. vegetable oil, 1 C. water and 4 Tbl. cocoa. Pour over flour mixture and blend well. Stir in 2 eggs, 1 tsp. vanilla, 1 tsp. cinnamon. 1 tsp. baking soda and 1/2 c. buttermilk. Pour onto ungreased 9/13/1" cookie sheet with narrow rim. Bake at 400ºF for 20 minutes.
Frosting: Bring to rapid boil, 1 stick (1/2 c.) butter, 6 Tbl. milk and 4 Tbl. cocoa. Add 1 tsp. vanilla, 1 1/2 to 2 lbs. powdered sugar and 1 C. chopped pecans. Spread on sheet cake as soon as it is removed from oven.
Note: I made this years ago (in the early to mid 70's) when my kids were very young and they loved this! They were always begging me to make it! This is awesome!
