Because of things I’m involved in, I very often find myself looking for dessert ideas to feed a crowd. Of all types of desserts, I love my sheet cake recipes the best! Simple to make, easy to transport and serve… but loaded with flavor and richness. You can’t beat that, especially when you see everyone enjoying and coming back for seconds! The pan is basically the size of 2 – 9×13 pans, so if you don’t have a sheet cake pan, you can split it between 2 – 9×13 pans. If you are looking for a sheet cake pan, Check out this Wilton one!

Another great recipe that feeds a crowd is this S’mores Bars Dessert!

To toast the pecans, I simply chopped them and toasted them in a small, dry skillet, stirring constantly. It just takes 2-3 minutes.
