Devil's Food Sheet Cake
1-1/2 cups water
2 cups sugar
3/4 cup butter
2 eggs, lightly beaten
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
2 cups all-purpose flour
1/2 cup baking cocoa
2 teaspoons baking soda
1/2 teaspoon salt
Frosting
1/4 cup butter, softened
2 cups confectioners' sugar
2 tablespoons baking cocoa
1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
2 to 3 tablespoons milk
In a large saucepan, bring water to a boil. Remove from the heat. Stir in sugar and butter until butter is melted. Add eggs and vanilla; mix well. Combine flour, cocoa, baking soda and salt; add to butter mixture and mix thoroughly.
Pour into a greased and floured 15-in. x 10-in. x 1-in. baking pan. Bake at 350 degrees for 30-35 minutes or until a wooden pick inserted near the center comes out clean. Cool completely on a wire rack.
For frosting, beat butter, confectioners' sugar, cocoa, vanilla and enough milk to reach a spreading consistency. Frost cake. Makes 16-20 servings.
