Church Classic {Recipe: Vanilla Texas Sheet Cake}

Jump to Recipe -

Vanilla Texas Sheet Cake is a twist on a classic church potluck recipe, topped with a creamy vanilla frosting and chopped Diamond walnuts.

Vanilla Texas Sheet Cake from www.dineanddish.netI don’t want to be disrespectful, but the desserts that the church ladies provide for funerals are the best! There is nothing like a table full of a variety of desserts, all so varying and tempting in their own way.  When I am in front of that dessert table, I remember exactly what it felt like to be a kid in a candy shop. So many choices…I want them all!

Vanilla Texas Sheet Cake from dineanddish.net

We were invited to an Easter potluck this year and I quickly remembered the dessert I chose at the most recent funeral I attended. It was a Texas Sheet Cake, but unlike the traditional chocolate Texas Sheet Cake, it was vanilla! It was perfectly sweet and so good, I knew I needed to make it for the potluck we were attending.

I found a recipe that seemed similar to what I had at the funeral on Food.com. I made some simple changes (added vanilla instead of almond extract, slightly reduced the sugar in the frosting and added chopped Diamond Walnuts to half the cake and left the other half plain, so people could make their own choice as to if they wanted nuts on their slice or not). See below for my slightly adapted recipe, but go here to see how the recipe was originally posted.

This is such a great recipe for a crowd because it makes quite a bit…serving up to 20 people. If you have an Easter event coming up and are looking for something simple and delicious to make, I highly recommend giving this Vanilla Texas Sheet Cake recipe a try! Enjoy!

Vanilla Texas Sheet Cake

A favorite at church potlucks, this Vanilla Texas Sheet Cake makes enough to serve a crowd!
Prep Time 25 minutes
Cook Time 22 minutes
Total Time 47 minutes
Servings 20 servings

Ingredients

  • 1 cup butter cut into cubes
  • 1 cup water
  • 2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 2 cups granulated sugar
  • 2 eggs beaten
  • 1/2 cup sour cream
  • 1 teaspoon Vanilla Bean Paste or vanilla extract
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda

For the frosting:

  • 1/2 cup butter
  • 1/4 cup milk
  • 4 cups powdered sugar
  • 1/2 teaspoon vanilla bean paste or vanilla extract
  • 1 cup chopped Diamond Walnuts

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 375°F.
  • Spray a 15x10 inch baking pan with cooking spray. (I bought this new pan for this cake... so worth it)
  • In a large saucepan, bring butter and water to a boil.
  • Remove from heat; stir in flour, sugar, eggs, sour cream, vanilla bean paste or vanilla extract, salt and baking soda until smooth. (Batter will be thick)
  • Pour into the prepared 15x10 inch baking pan.
  • Bake at 375°F for 20-22 minutes, or until cake is golden brown.
  • Cool for 20 minutes.
  • Meanwhile, for the frosting, combine butter and milk in a saucepan; bring to a boil, stirring as to not scorch the milk. Remove from heat. Add sugar and vanilla bean paste or extract and mix well.
  • Spread over warm cake, top with chopped walnuts.

    This is a great recipe. I have made this cake for years, but I used almond extract instead of the vanilla in the cake and icing, too–sliced almonds on top instead of walnuts. Otherwise, the same….one of my most requested cakes at family get togethers. Now, I’ll have to try it with the vanilla and pecans (I’m a Texan!).

    My Texas sheet cake recipe calls for buttermilk in the cake and frosting. I have a White Texas sheet cake recipe that also calls for buttermilk (instead of your sour cream I guess). This works out great because I now make both and my buttermilk doesn’t go to waste. Family LOVED!! the chocolate but since making white…..it is taking over *~*

New ink inspired by a quote in my friend @andiemmitchell amazing memoir “It Was Me All Along”. 

I tend to be an all or nothing person and look at long term and get overwhelmed instead of just taking things one day at a time. I’ve said her quote to myself multiple times a day for years. Now I’ll have a permanent reminder. 

The full quote: “Can you do it today? Can you make it through today without bingeing? Just today, and tomorrow we’ll reconsider?”

I need to go back and get a couple missed spots filled in but I love it. Thanks Rob at @irezumitattookc 🎉

Here’s a fun fact I heard on the radio several years ago…October 5th is the most popular day to be born (9 months prior is New Years Eve-ish). 🎉 

Happy birthday to all my many many birthday twins out there! It’s the big 4-8 for me…although this past year as a Covid long hauler I feel like I’ve aged 20 years in the past 1. But things are looking up! I’m excited for the next 365 days of my life. I’m blessed and so thankful to still be here, chugging along.

This picture is from last week when @kellykdoyle and I were visiting colleges in Colorado. If I have any followers with ties to @coloradostateuniversity or @cuboulder I’d love to chat!

I love being a parent of teens...but I miss the days of parenting kids who loved going to school, who didn't struggle with major anxiety, who loved their bodies, and were confident about how they looked. I miss pre-covid days where lunch wasn't distanced, kids had the opportunity to connect and socialize at school, where mask-wearing wasn't even a topic, let alone one that divides. 

The past 2 years have changed my kids. They have gained so many positive things, but they've also gained a new kind of anxiety that wasn't there before. And I hate it for them. They've seen first hand how long haul covid has changed our family. They've seen the selfishness of others in ways they haven't seen before. They've had to grow up faster, worry about things they shouldn't have to worry about, and learn the hard way how this world can really be. And it hurts my heart for them. 

I have a new senior, sophomore and 6th grader here at home. Missing my sophomore in college a ton. I hope the world is kind to them and they are kind to the world. I want nothing more than for them to be happy and to be surrounded by good people who love and accept them for who they are and who also push them to live a full, rich and happy life. I pray every day for them - and for your kids...and pray that we are all raising a generation of empathetic and kind changemakers.

Can’t believe we’re doing the college tour thing already with my second baby! 

So question for any of you who sent your kids to out of state schools or went to out of state schools...how did you do it? She wants to get the heck out of Kansas (I’d like to go with her!). We have money saved, she’ll most likely get a scholarship or two, she’s paying and has money saved as well...but even with that out of state tuition is a beast of an amount. So, did you just assume that student loans were going to be part of that life? And is that worth it to give your kids a shot at a new life outside of your home state? I wish I would have left Kansas for university, and have been here since I was born 😩. I want different for her if that’s what she wants but also just don’t have any experience with how people do out of state college! Any tips?

My friend @wakschmale makes the best strawberry jam...and I completely forgot about a jar she gave me last year until this morning. Which then inspired me to make my favorite buttermilk biscuits. So so good. Are you a jam, honey, just butter or plain biscuit fan? I love biscuits allll the ways, except with gravy. I have super bad memories of biscuits and gravy growing up. 🤢

I is for Inspiration!

The “long haul” effects of having Covid back in December are really presenting themselves lately. The continuous persistent headaches are taking a toll and the connection between the brain fog and word retrieval function of my brain has been extra challenging. I had no idea a couple months out, the cognitive effects would still be hanging around.
.
With that said, when I get a burst of inspiration I’m grabbing on for dear life. I made our favorite chocolate chip cookies recipe yesterday and felt the desire to update the blog post photos from 2007! We make these cookies all the time, so I’m not sure why it’s taken me so many years to give that poor post some new photos.
.
If you’re interested in the recipe you can find the link currently in my profile. Enjoy!!

I flew to South Texas yesterday to visit my parents whom I haven’t seen in 2 years. They live around 17 hours away from us. We typical get to see each other a few times a year but with the pandemic and other health issues it just wasn’t able to happen and I’ve missed them soooo much.

Grateful to have had COVID last month. Although it was not at all fun, it gave me the antibodies to make this trip possible. My dad is having surgery tomorrow so I’m helping with my mom so my dad can recover without having to worry about her.

Kansas is enjoying frigid temperatures and snow. I picked a great week to head south.

F is for...food photography.
.
This time of year especially, food photography (and I guess all photography actually) is a tug of war with time and light. I had planned on making and photographing a delicious pasta recipe, but my grocery delivery ran a couple of hours late because of snowstorm. So, at the eleventh hour I decided to make a cake...that took over an hour to bake and I had about 90 minutes of natural light left...leaving me with about 30 minutes of ok light to work with.
.
Anyway, this wouldn't work for a client shoot because the cake, although delicious, didn't turn out looking so great. But it will work great for today's F photo for the @kimklassen_innercircle A-Z photo project:) Lemon Citrus Yogurt Cake from this weeks @cabotcheese newsletter. So good!
