Grease and flour a 9\u00d713-inch baking pan. In a large bowl, combine self-rising flour and granulated sugar. Set aside.<\/p>\n<p>2. In a saucepan, combine 1 cup butte, 1 cup coffee, and 1\/3 cup cocoa. Bring to a boil, stirring constantly. Pour into the prepared dry ingredients. Using a hand-held mixer, mix on medium speed until wet and dry ingredients are thoroughly combined. Add eggs and the 1\/2 cup of buttermilk. Mix on medium speed for another minute or so, until well combined.<\/p>\n<p>3. Pour into baking pan, and bake for 25-30 minutes. When cake is done baking, a toothpick or fork inserted into the middle of the cake should come out clean.<\/p>\n<p>4. Prepare the frosting. In a medium saucepan, combine 1\/4 cup butter, 4 tablespoons buttermilk, and 3 tablespoons unsweetened cocoa powder. Bring to a boil over medium heat, stirring constantly.<\/p>\n<p>5. Remove from heat and use a wire whisk to gradually mix in powdered sugar, a 1\/2 cup at a time.<\/p>\n<p>6. Spread or pour the warm frosting over the cake. While the cake is still warm, sprinkle with chopped pecans, and chocolate chips. Drizzle with caramel sauce.<br \/>\nTip: If you don\u2019t have buttermilk, no worries. Mix 1\/2 cup milk with 2 tsp vinegar or lemon juice. Let it sit a few minutes, before you add it to the other ingredients.<\/p>\n\n<div style=\"font-size: 0px; height: 0px; line-height: 0px; margin: 0; padding: 0; clear: both;\"><\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>TEXAS TURTLE SHEET CAKE INGREDIENTS 2 cups granulated sugar 2 cups self-rising flour 1 cup butter 1 cup strong black coffee 1\/3 cup unsweetened cocoa powder 2 eggs 1\/2 cup buttermilk chocolate frosting: 1\/4 cup butter 4 tablespoons buttermilk 3 tablespoons unsweetened cocoa 2 1\/2 cups powdered sugar turtle topping: 1\/2 cup chopped pecans INSTRUCTIONS &#8230; <a title=\"TEXAS TURTLE SHEET CAKE\" class=\"read-more\" href=\"https:\/\/mrhealthyalternative.com\/?p=26884\" aria-label=\"Read more about TEXAS TURTLE SHEET CAKE\">Read more<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":12,"featured_media":26885,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"om_disable_all_campaigns":false,"_monsterinsights_skip_tracking":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_active":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_note":"","_monsterinsights_sitenote_category":0,"footnotes":""},"categories":[129],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-26884","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-recipes"],"aioseo_notices":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/mrhealthyalternative.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/26884","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/mrhealthyalternative.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/mrhealthyalternative.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/mrhealthyalternative.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/12"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/mrhealthyalternative.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=26884"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/mrhealthyalternative.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/26884\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":26886,"href":"https:\/\/mrhealthyalternative.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/26884\/revisions\/26886"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/mrhealthyalternative.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/media\/26885"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/mrhealthyalternative.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=26884"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/mrhealthyalternative.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=26884"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/mrhealthyalternative.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=26884"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
