TEXAS SHEET CAKE COOKIES Recipes

I am aware that I have already posted a chocolate recipe this week.  I am also aware that there can NEVER be enough chocolate recipes, cookie recipes and more importantly…easy recipes.  If you have never been fortunate enough to have a piece of Texas Sheet Cake, than I am truly sorry.  I ate my first piece as an adult and I am serious when I tell you this…I feel like my childhood was incomplete without it.

The first time grandma Pearl made it for a family gathering, I was hooked but who wouldn’t be?  Texas Sheet Cakes are a thin and super moist chocolate cake that are coated with a homemade and decadent cooked chocolate frosting.  There isn’t any evidence to confirm that this cake actually originated in Texas but we will go with tradition although Oregon Sheet Cake Cookies has a good ring to it.

Today I have taken this concept and turned it into my favorite food group…COOKIES!!  I have also made life simple and used a cake mix for the cookie base.  Using a cake mix to make cookies is a really great time saving tip because they take minimal ingredients and the cookies when baked correctly are phenomenal be sure to check out my Red Velvet Kiss Cookies and Red Velvet Sandwich Cookies with Cream Cheese Frosting.
