Ingredients
- 2 cups white sugar
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 cup butter, melted
- 1 cup water
- 3 tablespoons unsweetened cocoa powder
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- 1/2 cup buttermilk
- 2 eggs
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1/2 cup butter
- 3 tablespoons unsweetened cocoa powder
- 5 tablespoons milk
- 1 (16 ounce) box confectioners' sugar
- 1 cup chopped pecans
Method
Step 1
Preheat an oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease an 11x17 jelly roll pan.
Step 2
Mix white sugar and flour in a large bowl. Combine 1 cup butter, water, and 3 tablespoons cocoa powder in a small saucepan; stir over medium heat until butter is melted and mixture is well combined. Pour melted butter mixture over sugar and flour; beat well. Beat in baking soda, buttermilk, eggs, and vanilla extract. Pour batter into prepared pan.
Step 3
Bake in preheated oven until a toothpick inserted into the center of cake comes out clean, 20 to 25 minutes. Remove from oven and allow to cool on a wire rack.
Step 4
