I realize this is a hijack, but Ladybird Johnson sometimes gets credit for giving Texas Sheet Cake that name...it's made in a bar pan instead of a regular 9 x 13 (or other) cake pan so it's a thinner sheet...the icing is poured over the cake while it's still hot so it kind of adheres to it & seeps in...it's very moist. Seriously, it's like crack...sometimes I substitute strong brewed coffee for the milk in the icing to make it mocha...or a little orange extract gives it an interesting flavor.
This is by far my favorite dessert ever...so I'm pulling for them!
