I’ve been wanting to create a vegan cake recipe that was perfect for parties and gatherings — something that would feed a ton of people. I already have fancier chocolate cake recipes like my classic vegan chocolate cake and vegan chocolate torte. I needed a recipe for a big old sheet cake! When I learned that Texas sheet cake was a thing I knew it had to be the inspiration for my vegan sheet cake. There are lots of versions of this type of cake, but a few features you’ll generally find include a low profile, and spongy chocolate cake topped with chocolate frosting made with melted butter. Cinnamon and pecans make frequent appearances as well. I included everything, for what I think is the ultimate vegan sheet cake recipe.
How It’s Made
The following is a detailed photo tutorial on how to make this dish. Scroll all the way down if you’d like to skip right to the recipe! Tip: You’re welcome to whisk or stir the frosting together, but if you use a whisk like I did in the photo, be prepared to be picking pecan bits out of it. Maybe use a spoon instead! Once your frosting has had a chance to set, you can slice and enjoy your vegan sheet cake! You can also seal it up well and freeze it for up to three months.
