Instructions: Mix cocoa, flour, baking power, soda and salt together in a small bowl, set aside.

In a large bowl, cream margarine or butter with the sugar, beat in the eggs and vanilla. Add flour mixture alternately with the water stirring well after each time. Stir in the sauerkraut. Pour into a 13 x 9 floured and greased baking pan (or just use non stick spray) bake at 350 degrees for 30 minutes. Cake is done when center bounces back or toothpick inserted in center comes out clean. Do not over-bake. Cool, then frost with your favorite frosting. I like to use this one:
Penuche Frosting

1 stick butter or margarine
1 Cup brown sugar
1/4 Cup evaporated milk

Mix together in small pot and cook over medium heat until it boils. Remove from heat and cool to lukewarm. Add powdered sugar enough to spread.
