"I love Texas Sheet Cake, but now that I've found out that I'm allergic to dairy I can't have it as written. This recipe is modified from a recipe on Food.com, #73630, made dairy-free with soy milk "buttermilk" (also from a recipe by Kree) and margarine substitution for the butter. I haven't tried it yet, but am about to for my birthday cake."
