  Categories: Cakes, Chocolate
       Yield: 10 servings
  
            Cake:
       2 c  All-purpose flour
       2 c  Sugar
       1 c  Margarine
       4 tb Cocoa
       1 c  Cold water
       1 ts Baking soda
       1 ts Vanilla extract
       1 ts Ground cinnamon
     1/4 ts Salt
     1/2 c  Buttermilk
       2    Eggs
            Frosting:
     1/2 c  Margarine
       5 tb Evaporated milk
       1 c  Pecans; chopped
       4 tb Cocoa
       1 ts Vanilla extract
       1 lb Powdered sugar
  
   Preheat oven to 375 degrees.  Sift flour and sugar, set
   aside.  In a saucepan, bring the margarine, cocoa and water
   to a boil; remove from heat.  In a large bowl, mix all
   remaining cake ingredients.  Add the flour mixture and
   cocoa mixture, stirring well.  Bake in a greased and
   floured 9x13″ pan for 20 to 30 minutes. Check for doneness
   with a clean toothpick. Ten minutes into the baking of the
   cake, prepare the frosting.
   Place the margarine, cocoa, and milk in a saucepan and
   bring to a boil.  Remove from the heat and add the
   remaining ingredients.  Beat until smooth. FROST THE CAKE
   AS SOON AS IT COME OUT OF THE OVEN.
   Let it cool a little before cutting, if you can't possible
   hold out!. This cake is so good, you'd eat it with one foot
   in the fire if you had to.
