INGREDIENTS

For the Cookies:

  • 1/2 cup butter (softened)
  • 1/3 cup granulated sugar
  • 1 large egg
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 1/4 cup sour cream
  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1/2 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
  • 1/2 tsp baking soda
  • 1/4 tsp salt

For the Warm Chocolate Icing:

  • 1/4 cup butter
  • 2 tbsp milk
  • 2 tbsp unsweetened cocoa powder
  • 1 1/4 cups powdered sugar
  • 1/2 tsp vanilla extract

INSTRUCTIONS & METHODS

STEP 1 — Cream & Mix

  1. Beat the softened butter and sugar together until fluffy.
  2. Add the egg, sour cream, and vanilla. Mix until smooth.

STEP 2 — Dry Ingredients

  1. In a separate bowl, whisk together flour, cocoa powder, baking soda, and salt.
  2. Add the dry mixture to the wet mixture and stir until a thick cookie dough forms.

STEP 3 — Shape & Bake

  1. Scoop dough into tablespoon-sized balls onto a lined baking sheet.
  2. Bake at 350°F (175°C) for 8–9 minutes.
  3. DO NOT overbake — they should look soft in the center.
  4. Let cool while you prepare the icing.

STEP 4 — Make the Warm Texas Sheet Cake Icing

  1. In a small saucepan, melt butter with milk and cocoa powder over medium heat.
  2. Remove from heat and whisk in powdered sugar and vanilla until silky and pourable.
  3. Spoon the warm icing over each cookie while the cookies are still slightly warm.
  4. Let the icing set and become glossy and beautiful.

Texas Sheet Cake is a Southern classic born from potluck culture — big, bold, simple ingredients, and always enough to feed a crowd. This cookie version is a modern twist that takes the beloved flavors of the original giant cake and transforms them into easy hand-held treats.

People love Texas Sheet Cake because:

  • it’s chocolatey
