Ingredients:
Cake:
- 1 c. butter
- 1 c. water
- 2 c. sugar
- 2 1/4 c. all-purpose flour
- 1/2 tsp. salt
- 1 tsp. baking soda
- 2 eggs
- 1 tsp. vanilla

- 1 c. butter
- 6 Tbl. evaporated milk
- 4 1/2 c. powdered sugar
- 1 tsp. vanilla

Directions:
Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Melt butter and water in a large saucepan over medium-low heat until butter is melted. Remove from heat and stir in the sugar, flour, salt and baking soda. Stir with a wire whisk until smooth. Add eggs and vanilla. Stir in the sour cream and mix until blended. Pour the batter into a well greased 11”x17” sheet pan. Bake for 20-25 minutes or until the cake springs back when lightly touched or a toothpick inserted in center comes out clean. Remove cake from oven and allow to cool slightly while you make the frosting. Put the butter and milk into a medium saucepan. Heat until butter is melted and bring to a simmer. Remove from heat and stir in the powdered sugar, vanilla and a dash of salt. Whisk until completely smooth. Add nuts (if desired) and spread over cake.
