In reply to Sam. use 1/4 cup olive oil for every egg you take out. it's what a lot of vegan bakeries use to replace eggs in cakes, cookies and brownies.

Made this cake and it is AMAZING! My extremely picky hubby said it was the best cake he ever ate! Can’t beat that. I really like the way you not only list ingredients and instructions but give personalized hints and tips – I’m sure that’s why your recipes turn out so good!

In reply to Jan. I am so glad you enjoyed it so much, Jan! I sometimes make a nice mess with mine too but it's all in the name of lots of chocolate! :)

This should (almost) be illegal! It’s so insanely tasty and I have to share the crazy thing I did while making it. Baked the cake, made the icing and then as I was pressing the marshmallows into the cake I got the urge to get out my kitchen torch and toast the tops of the marshmallows, AKA molten lava. As I start with the icing, the mud slide begins and I’m frantically trying to keep everything together. I end up making an aluminum foil damn around the pan and hoping for the best. Lesson learned. Cake was still wonderful if a little messy. Next time I will use a deeper pan especially if I decide to toast the marshmallows again!

Your Texas sheet cake (with added pecans) is already a regular in this house. It’s the fastest, easiest chocolate dessert to make from scratch when a craving hits. This, however, literally takes the cake and was incredible. Now I’m thinking of all kinds Of flavors and things I can add to this cake!

In reply to Lisa. Hi Lisa! That will work just fine. This cake is very similar to my Texas Sheet Cake, but this one has a little more frosting to accommodate the marshmallows. :)

In reply to Sam. Hi! Came across this recipe and was wondering if I can make this cake without the marshmallows? I'm not a fan of marshmallows but love frosted cake :)

In reply to Marwa. Hi Marwa! The chocolate frosting hardens like a ganache, so it's still soft when you cut into it but the top should be firm. Greek yogurt works great as a substitute for sour cream, and if it turned out great that's all that matters :)

Great cake, is the top part supposed to stay soft? My ribbons held shape for a while …
Also I didn’t have sour cream and used yogurt…its still great just wondering if thats OK

In reply to Bina. I haven't tried it but you could probably do it in an 8 inch square pan.

In reply to Sam. What size pan would you recommend I use then?

In reply to Tina. Hi Tina! I'm not quite sure how leaving the eggs out would work here because I haven't tried any substitutes.

Is it compulsory to use eggs in this

This is the best chocolate cake I have ever had! Seriously. It will be the only recipe I will use for a chocolate cake. It did make a lot so I have cut into pieces and placed in the freezer. It’s even good eating it frozen or not. Recipe was simple. I cooked the cake at exactly 15 minutes and it was perfect. Really enjoyed the cake.

In reply to Bina. If I make too much I eat too much so I understand! You shouldn't have any issues halving this recipe. Enjoy! :)

Can this cake be made in a 13×9 inch pan instead of a jellyroll pan?

By: Bina

Bina — Thu, 23 Jul 2020 16:21:01 +0000

This looks delicious. How would halving the recipe work in your opinion? It is just two of us at home and I really do not need to eat 12 squares. Thanks!
