Before Christmas a friend called and asked for the recipe for this Chocolate Sheet Cake that had been in the column years ago. She suggested that I ought to run it again. Alan’s sister gave me the recipe and you will often see it in older cookbooks under one name or another. It is a delicious cake and very easy to make. Actually several squares of this cake would be wonderful to share with friends and neighbors for Valentine’s day and if it is fresh from the oven and still slightly warn, it’s even better. This recipe is a good one to have for times when you want to serve a lot of people.
