  • This rich, chocolatey, flavorful bit of cake will melt in your mouth when you take your first bite. Whether you have made this before or have just eaten it before, I think you will enjoy seeing how easy it is to make. It freezes well so you have half it and have some later on. I hope you try it today and please, let me know how you like it. Recipe below.

    That looks delicious! Gosh, I haven’t had this in YEARS! But I’m going to make it soon now that I watched your recipe.:) I remember that thin frosting, and my favorite part was that little bit of a crust that the icing gets when it sets up. Of course, I’d be watching this when I can’t sleep and can’t eat cake. Haha I was thinking that I might try the marshmallows in the Summertime for my Grandloves too. I thought maybe I’ll ice it first, then marshmallows, then torch the marshmallows just slightly, and sprinkle just a tiny bit of graham cracker crumbs on top too, for S’mores Chocolate Sheet Cake. Just an idea off of what you did. God Bless!! 🙏🏼✨👍
