Grandma Sue is famous for her chocolate buttermilk sheet cake. It has long been the only cake that will do for any birthday around here. Jonathan and Jackson's friends expectantly look forward to this cake, as well. :)
Here is the recipe...

Do you grease and flour your PC stoneware pan? I have one of those as well and just wondered.
ReplyDeleteWe don't do anything to our stoneware pans, but they are pretty well seasoned, so that may make a difference.
