Texas Turtle Sheet Cake!!!

Have you ever tried something so delicious you can barely stand it This is one of those recipes.

My new favorite dessert that will feed and delight a crowd. This Texas turtle leaf cake is perfect for all chocolate and caramel lovers.

It’s the perfect combination of a brownie and a cake, yet has the most amazing flavor and texture.

It’s honestly my favorite dessert.

The icing is what really attracts me. I usually like my frosting a bit thick, but it’s the perfect thin layer that is so delicious and adds just the perfect amount of sausage to the cake.

I decided to slightly modify the original Texas Sheet Cake recipe and add a little more turtle to it.

There are literally bits of caramel in the batter, and you can’t go wrong with that. This Texas Sheet Cake has been taken to a whole new level, and I think you’ll be happy with it.

It definitely feeds a crowd, so it’s perfect for barbecues, potlucks, family reunions, family reunions, or just yourself (no judgment here).To Make this Recipe You’ Will Need the following ingredients:
