🤎 German Chocolate SHEET Cake!!
|
Hey Reader! New on the Site: German Chocolate Sheet Cake Recipe Made in a 10x15" pan (or on a cookie sheet), this recipe is large enough for a crowd but doesn't have any of the extra layering steps! Serve this right from the pan! Make these with einkorn or any all-purpose wheat flour.
Packed with all the classic flavors of a traditional German Chocolate Cake, with a fraction of the effort, this cake is ready to eat in less than 45 minutes! We recently had a crowd over for lunch (about 22 people, it was awesome!) and this was one of the desserts I made. We served it right from the glass pan and it was a huge hit! >> Get the German Chocolate Sheet Cake Recipe here!
