My family has a favorite cake. We love this cake more than any other cake in the world. I got this recipe from my friend Suzy while we lived in Dallas. We loved it so much we can finish a pan off in one weekend. We have made it for friends and neighbors and taken it to church functions etc. I get requests for this recipe constantly. I know there are a lot of recipes out there for Texas Sheet Cake but take it from a Texas family: This is the best Texas Sheet Cake you will ever sink your teeth in.
