Need a dessert to feed a crowd?  My White Texas Sheet Cake would work out terrific if you do.  I like to make this cake for picnics and potlucks,




Billy was home this weekend and brought with him our newest addition to the family.  This is Paisley and she is Billy and Amanda's (Billy's girlfriend) dog.  Paisley got to spend the weekend at our house and we all fell in love with her!


While Billy was home my in-laws invited us all to dinner.  I made this White Texas Sheet Cake and a Peanut Butter Sheet Cake (coming soon to the blog) for dinner.  I usually make this in a big sheet cake pan (15x10x1) but since I made 2 different flavors I put them in a half sheet cake pan (8x11x1)
If you want to make the full sheet cake then double the recipe below and bake for 20 to 22 minutes.
