This is not your typical Texas Sheet Cake, but a cookie version that tastes just as amazing. One bite of these soft and fudgy Texas Sheet Cake Cookies will leave you reaching for more!

Texas Sheet Cake Cookies

Texas Sheet Cake Cookies

Everything began when Shelly from the blog Cookie and Cups decided to make her favorite cake into a cookies version. Of course, a great recipe like that could not stay unseen in the eyes of a chocoholic like me :). And when it was time for the cookies in my kitchen, it was already known which version will spread the smell from my oven – Texas Sheet Cake Cookies of course . And if you are wondering what taste do cookies topped with the classic poured chocolate icing have, the only thing I could say is: divine.

And if you don’t believe me, you can ask my choosy son Marco, for whom it is always difficult to accept something new in his repertoire of sweets. But this time, he was munching the chocolate cookies one after another! Well, I don’t know what Marco himself would tell you because he rarely says anything except “mommy” or “daddy”, but maybe the pictures on the post will tell you more then all of us together !

I love Texas Sheet Cake and can’t wait to make these!! I make a different version of the sheet cake called, Mexican Chocolate Cake. It’s pretty much the same, but I like my version of the cake better than the Texas cake….and so do my friends. Thanks for sharing!

Mandy – Don’t know if you will see this….but what is different about your Mexican Chocolate Cake? Would love a recipe.

Nikkie October 26, 2014 - 12:28 am

Casey, it’s almost the same but with cinnamon, usually that’s the diff. HTH

My favorite cake, evah! I was wondering how these travel?

Hi,
I love Texas sheet cake and I tried your cookies yesterday to take to a church family day event. My cake recipe is made with buttermilk and cinnamon so I just add to add a tsp of cinnamon to your recipe! It was awesome and everyone of the cookies was gone from a table FULL of lots of desserts!
Thanks, I know I’ll use it again!

Hi! These look super yummy. I pinned it last week and today I’m adding the ingredients to my shopping list. The measurement for 1/2 melted baking chocolate is hard to understand. . . usually, recipes call for a certain number of oz. of the chocolate and then you melt it. Can you help a newbie out?

Reply
Vera Zecevic December 5, 2014 - 10:11 pm

Hi Juliann,I’m glad you asked, my mistake but I just corrected the recipe.It’s 3 oz. baking chocolate or 1/2 cup chocolate chips

Shelly December 8, 2014 - 5:54 pm

I have not tried this recipe yet, but it sounds just FABULOUS! Wondering if these could be frozen for a couple of weeks…like for an early Christmas cookie exchange?

Reply
Vera Zecevic December 8, 2014 - 10:45 pm

Thanks Shelly:0
I didn’t try to freeze them so I can’t help you with that.Sorry

Have you made this dough ahead of time and refrigerated before making?

Just veganized them with vegan marg and replaced the egg. The icing isn’t even on them yet and we’re devouring them! Omg!

We just made these tonight, and they are destined to be a new family favorite. Perfect texture and taste. Thanks!

I just made these and they have no flavor. Also, the icing was separating and oily. What did I do wrong???

Reply
Vera Zecevic February 1, 2015 - 11:00 pm

I’m sorry Shane, I don’t know what went wrong

Reply
Stephanie February 23, 2015 - 3:17 am

These are amazing!! I made them tonight and they were a huge hit! Definitely on my go-to list from now on! Thank you for sharing! 🙂

Vickie February 26, 2015 - 8:43 pm

I’m going to try these but will add cinnamon to the cookie and chopped pecans to the icing (the Texas Sheet cake recipe I have uses cinnamon and pecans along with buttermilk). They look awesome —

Is the cocoa powder sweetened or unsweetened?

Reply
Vera Zecevic March 5, 2015 - 7:16 pm

Hi Sarah, it’s unsweetened cocoa powder.

Thanks!

These are the BEST cookies!!! My husband says that they are the best cookies that I’ve ever made. I double the batch every time I make them….which still isn’t enough. I never have leftovers. 🙂 So good!! ♡ Thank you for sharing such a good recipe! ♡

Glenda May 23, 2015 - 5:39 pm

Great cookie recipe – very yummy! Mine flattened out more than yours, but were still tasty. On the second batch I chilled the dough for about 30 minutes before baking and it was much better. Thanks!

Reply
Cheryl Daughtry June 26, 2015 - 6:49 pm

Maybe I missed it, but what size is the pan to bake in?

Thanks

Reply
Vera Zecevic June 26, 2015 - 9:41 pm

Hi Cheryl, use large baking sheet and keep the cookies 2 inch apart.

Reply
Peg July 12, 2015 - 9:49 pm

where do you live? I’m at 5000 ft and wondered if these need to be adjusted for high elevation.

Reply
Vera Zecevic July 12, 2015 - 10:08 pm

Hi Peg, you probably should make some adjustment.
