Instructions: Sift together flour, baking powder, soda, salt and cocoa. Cream butter, sugar and vanilla thoroughly. Beat in eggs one at a time, stir in flour mixture in several additions, alternately with water until smooth each time. Stir in kraut.

Turn into 2 greased and floured 9 inch round cake pans. Bake in preheated oven 350 degrees until a cake tester come out clean about 30 minutes. Cool on wire rack for 10 minutes. Turn out on racks and cool completely.

frosting: Whip cream with sugar and then add cocoa, beat until stiff peaks form. Sandwich cakes together and frost top and sides. The kraut tastes like coconut.
