Ingredients:

Serving

3/4 cup butter, softened
1-1/2 cups sugar
3 eggs
1 tsp vanilla extract
2 cups king arthur unbleached all-purpose flour
3/4 cup baking cocoa
1 tsp baking soda
1 tsp baking powder
1/4 tsp salt
1 cup water
1 cup sauerkraut, rinsed, drained, squeezed dry and finely chopped
2/3 cup flaked coconut
1/2 cup finely chopped pecans
filling/frosting:
2 cups (12 oz) semisweet chocolate chips, melted
2/3 cup mayonnaise
2/3 cup flaked coconut, divided
2/3 cup chopped pecans, divided

Directions:

In a bowl, cream butter and sugar. Add the eggs, one at a time, beating well after each addition. Beat in vanilla. Combine dry ingredients; add to the creamed mixture alternately with water. Fold in sauerkraut, coconut and pecans. Pour into three greased and floured 9-in. round baking pans. Bake at 350° for 20-24 minutes or until toothpick inserted near the center comes out clean. Cool for 10 minutes before removing from pans to wire racks; cool completely.
In a bowl, combine melted chocolate and mayonnaise. Set aside 1-1/4 cups for frosting. To the remaining chocolate mixture, add half of the coconut and pecans; spread between cake layers. Spread reserved chocolate mixture over top and sides of cake. Combine remaining coconut and pecans; press onto sides of cake. Store in the refrigerator. Slice with a serrated knife. Yield: 12-14 servings.
