Preheat oven to 350. Grease (with Crisco) and flour a 15" x 10" cookie sheet. In a mixing bowl, put flour, sugar, baking soda, and salt. Mix well and set aside. In a small pan, melt butter. Add water and cocoa. Whisk until smooth and bring to a boil. Pour hot mixture into dry ingredients and mix with mixer. Add 2 beaten eggs, vanilla, and sour cream. Beat with mixer until smooth.
Bake at 350 for 18-20 minutes until an inserted toothpick comes out clean. Let cool completely before frosting.
For frosting, melt butter in small pan. Add cocoa and milk and bring to a boil. Immediately take off of heat and slowly add powdered sugar, mixing until smooth. Add vanilla and mix some more. Fold in nuts if desired. Pour over cooled cake and smooth with a spatula.
