Chi-Chi's Famous White Texas Sheet Cake

This is the only cake recipe that you will EVER need! My mother-in-law is famous for her Texas Sheet Cake, and we've all decided that her "white" version is the absolute best! Whether you're preparing a birthday treat for a child, a sweet dish for a school class, or a festive dessert for the next holiday, this easy homemade cake can be decorated with sprinkles to suit any special occasion! Carole (or "Chi-Chi" as the kids call her) serves the dessert for many holidays, and definitely for all of the family birthdays. It's such a versatile treat because you can decorate it to match any theme! Add black and orange sprinkles for Halloween, red and green sprinkles for Christmas, or rainbow sprinkles for a birthday party! The kid-friendly treat appeals to big and little appetites, and it's so much easier to eat than a big, thick, multi-layer cake or cupcake. Carole cuts the Texas Sheet Cake into small squares, which the 2-and-3-year-old grandsons can pick up and eat like brownies. There's no messy frosting smeared everywhere and there's no need for utensils! It's the perfect cake-to-frosting ratio! Carole's White Texas Sheet Cake is a fluffy, moist and perfectly festive dessert for your next special occasion. I hope that it becomes a tradition in your family, just like it has in ours!

NotesThis cake keeps well on the counter (covered) for about 3 days, or in the refrigerator for up to 1 week.
