BEET CAKE
I found this recipe handwritten in my grandmother's well-worn cookbook. I've made it many times, and my four grandchildren love it (they think it's just a moist chocolate cake). It's especially appropriate for this contest because our state is known as the beet-growing capital.

GRANDMA'S GERMAN CHOCOLATE CAKE
This is my grandma's recipe for German Chocolate Cake. This was all of us kid's favorite for birthdays. I made this for my husband on our first date on his birthday, and it's a tradition in our family now. We always use black walnuts, but you can use English walnuts. The hot water sounds weird, but that's the way my family has made it for years.

Steps:
- I make this in either a greased and floured 9 x 12 inch pan or 2 9-inch round pans. For the 9 inch pans I also add wax paper cut to the pan size in the bottom of the pan.

- Cream margarine and sugar.
- Add eggs, one at a time, and beat well.
- Add buttermilk and dry ingredients.
- Add boiling water and beat until mixed.
- Bake in a preheated 350 degree oven for 45-55 minutes or until done.

- Cook and stir over medium heat until thickened, about 15 minutes.
- Add coconut and nuts.

MARITIMER'S MINT CHOCOLATE BEET CAKE
My sister-in-law got this recipe from my brother's postdoc advisor's wife in Edmonton in the 1970's. It is a very moist chocolate cake with a surprise ingredient - beets! I have tried it with orange extract instead of peppermint, and it came out fantastic. You can also leave out the peppermint altogether if you want just plain chocolate.

Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (~176 degrees C).
- Blend the sugar, eggs, and oil in a bowl.
- Mix in the pureed beets. The original recipe called for draining the pureed beets. I think my oven might be hotter than it thinks it is, so I just leave the beet juice in, and it works out OK.
- Fold in the dry ingredients.
- Add the vanilla and peppermint flavors last.
- Pour into a 9x9 inch pan (or 9 inch round plus a couple of cupcakes). (9in =~ 229cm).
- Bake for 45 minutes or until a bamboo skewer comes out clean.
- Let cool in the pan until almost room temperature.
- This is a very moist cake, and it will fall apart if you rush this step.
- Sprinkle with powdered sugar or ice with real homemade frosting, such as "Silky Vanilla Butter Frosting" (recipe #23715).
- Didn't know it freezes well; thanks for the tip, BrutalKiss!

GRANDMA'S CHOCOLATE CAKE
This recipe has been passed down through the family for many generations. It is the only chocolate cake recipe I use anymore. The cake is nice and moist and has such a bold flavor. This cake is great for a German chocolate icing, but I have used all types of icings, which all complement the cake nicely. This cake always pleases the crowd when I make it. Hope you enjoy it as much as my family has for all these years.
