I found the recipe actually I found one for sauerkraut cake (not brownies) and black eyed pea cake

The following recipies were copied from a well worn and used hand written 3x5 cards I am so glad my mom had such pretty writing it was pretty easy to read, except where the grease smudges are.


Sauerkraut cake 2 1/2 cups flour
1tsp baking powder
3/4 cup cocoa
1 stick oleo (margarine for you youngsters)
1 1/2 cups sugar
3 eggs
1/2 cup drained sauerkraut
1 cup milk (this is an older recipe late 60's probably regular milk)
1cup water


Combine dry, first 3, ingredients and set aside
Cream oleo and sugar, add eggs 1 at a time mixing well
Add sauerkraut
Add dry ingredients alternating with milk and water.
Bake in a large edged cookie sheet or jelly roll pan at 350 for 30 minutes till done
Sprinkle top with coconut (yes I know it's not a listed ingredient)
Drizzle with glaze. (Yes once again not listed my recipe card says glaze recipe on zucchini card, I can't find that card) the card goes on to read
This batter is very thin a real moist delicious cake. I like it better without the coconut.



Black eyed pea cake


1 1/2 cups cooking oil
2 1/4 cups sugar
3 egg
1 cup canned unseasoned black eyed peas drained and puréed
1 tsp salt
1 tsp baking powder
2 tsp cinnamon
1 tsp nutmeg
1tsp vanilla
3 cups flour
1 1/2 cups canned pears drained and chopped
1cup chopped pecans


Combine sugar, eggs and oil mix well add puréed peas and mix
Add dry ingredients, spices, and vanilla mix well
Fold in pears, and pecans


Pour into greased and floured bundt pan bake 350 degrees for 1 hour 20 minutes. Let cool in pan for 20 minutes before removing from pan.


Also good with chopped pineapple instead of pears.


Glaze is listed on zucchini card.....


Well hell this was apparently a popular glaze and I do not have that card.
