Texas Sheet Cake (4 Star)

I've shared my favorite homemade vanilla cake (here). Now it's time to share my favorite homemade chocolate cake. It is moist, tender, rich, and reminds me of my grandmother. My second-born enjoyed this for his birthday cake, recently.



It is (as the name implies) a sheet cake and so I didn't know if it would work as a different shape but it did. I used a 10 by 2 inch round pan and I baked it 25-30 minutes instead of 20.



This is a recipe that I got from my grandmother's file, but Pioneer Woman has the exact same recipe on her site so I will just link hers so I don't have to type the whole thing. And, of course, her step-by-step format is way nicer than anything I post here.
