Plano Texas Sheet Cake Recipe
Got this one yrs ago from my mother-in-law. It's a good old fashion Texan sheet cake. It's quick easy to make and serves a crowd.

What could one use instead of the oleo


You could try butter or vegetable shortening. Also check out the vegan substitutes. Truthfully, I don't prefer desserts when it comes to food, BUT when I do prepare them, I always use butter for the best results.


This recipe is a great old stand-by, Tried and True! I have made this recipe using 1 stick unsalted butter and 1/2 cup Crisco! Very tender, and the real butter gives it that fabulous extra dimension! So good!


Terrific! Very Rich... :)


Sounds great!


Yum, love the Texas Sheet Cakes. Great post, got my 5


This is an oldie but a goldie! I love this cake ans I made one for Yesterdays dinner but left the nuts out of my icing.


I feel the same way about the nuts. I don't like them getting in the way of chocolate OR icing!!!
