Instructions
-
Preheat the Oven: Begin by preheating your oven to 350°F (175°C). This ensures that your cake bakes evenly and achieves that perfect golden hue.
-
-
Melt the Butter and Combine with Water: In a medium saucepan, combine the butter and water. Heat them together over medium heat until the butter is fully melted. Stir occasionally to ensure the mixture is well combined.
-
Mix the Dry Ingredients: In a large mixing bowl, add the sugar, salt, and flour. Once the butter and water mixture has melted, pour it into the bowl with the dry ingredients.
-
Add Remaining Ingredients: Carefully add the buttermilk, eggs, vanilla extract, and baking soda to the mixing bowl. Using an electric mixer, beat the ingredients on medium speed until the batter is smooth and well-blended, approximately 2-3 minutes.
-
Prepare the Baking Pan: Generously grease and flour a 15x11x1-inch jelly roll pan to prevent the cake from sticking after baking.
-
Pour Batter into the Pan: Pour the cake batter into the prepared pan, spreading it evenly with a spatula.
-
Bake the Cake: Place the pan in the preheated oven and bake for 20-22 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean. Keep an eye on it towards the end of the baking time to avoid overcooking.
-
Cool the Cake: Once baked, remove the cake from the oven and allow it to cool in the pan for about 10 minutes. Then, carefully transfer the cake to a wire rack to cool completely.
-
Prepare the Frosting: While the cake is cooling, prepare the frosting. In a mixing bowl, combine the remaining butter, milk, and vanilla extract. Beat until the mixture is smooth and creamy.
-
Add the Confectioners’ Sugar: Gradually add the confectioners’ sugar to the butter mixture, mixing well until the frosting reaches a spreadable consistency.
-
Frost the Cake: Once the cake has completely cooled, generously spread the frosting over the top using a spatula, ensuring every bite is sweet and creamy.
-
Serve and Enjoy: Cut into squares, serve, and watch as your friends and family savor each delightful piece of this rich and moist White Texas Sheet Cake II.
