Number Of Ingredients 17

Frosting:
1 cup butter
1 cup water
2 cups flour
2 cups sugar
2 eggs
1/2 cup buttermilk (sour cream works as well)
1 teaspoons almond extract
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 cup butter
1/2 cup buttermilk
4 1/2 cups powdered sugar
1/2 teaspoon almond extract
pinch of table salt
1 cup sliced almonds, toasted

Steps:

  • For the Cake: Preheat oven to 300º. In a small saucepan bring butter and water to a boil. In a large bowl, whisk together flour, sugar, baking soda and salt. Add hot butter mixture to dry ingredients and stir. Add buttermilk to the cake mixture, blending well. Add eggs and vanilla (plus almond extract if desired), mixing well. Pour the cake batter into a greased jelly roll pan and bake for 30 minutes or until done. Let cake cool for 20 minutes while preparing frosting, but remember to frost the cake while it is warm. Frosting: In a small saucepan, bring butter and buttermilk to a boil. In a separate bowl, add 3 cups powered sugar and a pinch of salt. Add hot mixture and almond extract over the powdered sugar and whisk until the frosting is smooth. The frosting will thicken as it cools. Add more powdered sugar, if needed, to help make a thicker frosting. If adding nuts, you can add them too the frosting before pouring over the warm cake or you can sprinkle them over the warm frosting as it cools. Cut into desired squares and serve. This cake stores well for a few days. *Remember it cools fast and sets up quickly.

Categories     Dessert

Time 2h

Yield 1 10 inch tube cake, 12 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 8

2 cups butter (if using margarine, not spread or tub product) or 2 cups margarine, softened (if using margarine, not spread or tub product)
2 cups sugar
6 eggs
4 cups all-purpose flour, divided
1 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
1 (2 ounce) bottle lemon extract
4 cups pecans, chopped
2 1/2 cups golden raisins

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 325°F.
  • Grease and flour a 10 inch tube pan or bundt pan.
  • Cream butter in a large mixing bowl; gradually add sugar, beating until light and fluffy.
  • Add eggs, one at a time, beating well after each addition.
  • Sift 3 1/2 cups flour and baking powder together, reserving 1/2 cup flour.
  • Gradually add to creamed mixture alternately with lemon extract, beginning and ending with flour mixture.
  • Beat well after each addition (the batter will be quite thick).
  • Dredge pecans and raisins in remaining 1/2 cup flour; stir into batter.
  • Spoon batter into prepared pan.
  • Bake for 1 3/4 hours or until cake tests done with a toothpick.
  • Cool in pan 15 minutes.
  • Turn out onto cooling rack and let cool completely before serving.

Tips:

  • Use room temperature ingredients: This will help the batter to mix together more smoothly and evenly.
  • Cream the butter and sugar together until light and fluffy: This will help to incorporate air into the batter, making the cake lighter and more tender.
  • Gradually add the eggs one at a time: This will help to prevent the batter from curdling.
  • Be careful not to overmix the batter: Overmixing can make the cake tough.
  • Bake the cake until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean: This will ensure that the cake is cooked through.
  • Allow the cake to cool completely before frosting it: This will help to prevent the frosting from melting.

Blonde Texas Sheet Cake with Pecans is a delicious and easy-to-make cake that is perfect for any occasion.
