CHOCOLATE CAKE:
1/2 cup margarine (softened)
2 eggs
1 1/2 cups sugar
1/2 cup HERSHEY'S Cocoa
2 cups flour
2 teaspoons baking soda
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/2 cup milk
1 teaspoons vanilla extract
1 cup boiling hot water
In a large bowl cream together margarine, eggs, sugar and cocoa until fluffy. In another bowl, sift together flour, baking soda and salt; add to butter mixture. Beat in milk and vanilla extract. Stir in boiling water (batter will be thin). Pour batter into prepared pans. Bake at 350 degrees for 25 to 30 minutes or until wooden toothpick inserted in center comes out clean.
Cool 10 minutes; remove from pans to wire racks. Cool completely and frost.

CHOCOLATE FROSTING:
1/2 cup margarine or butter, softened
1 3/4 cup confectioners sugar
1/4 cup Hershey's cocoa
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
3 Tablespoons cold water
Cream all ingredients together until spreading consistency.

CARROT CAKE:
2 cups sugar
1 1/2 cups Crisco oil
4 eggs
2 1/4 cups flour
1 teaspoon salt
2 teaspoons baking soda
2 teaspoons cinnamon
3 cups grated raw carrots
1 1/2 cups chopped walnuts
Mix in large bowl, sugar, oil and eggs; beat well. In separate bowl, sift flour, salt, baking soda and cinnamon. Blend dry ingredients into egg mixture. Stir in carrots and nuts. Pour into prepared pans. Bake at 300 degrees for about 60 minutes or until toothpick inserted in center comes out clean. Cool well and frost.

CREAM CHEESE FROSTING:
1 (8 ounces) package cream cheese, softened
1/2 cup margarine or butter, softened
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
3 cups sifted powdered sugar
1 Tablespoon milk
Cream all ingredients together until spreading consistency.

PINEAPPLE UPSIDE-DOWN CAKE:
1/2 cup margarine (1 stick) melted
1 cup brown sugar
1/2 cup walnuts (chopped)
1 can pinneapple slices (reserve syrup)
1 jar maraschino cherries
1 cup sugar
1 cup flour
2 teaspoons baking powder
1/4 teaspoon salt
3 eggs
1/4 cup pineapple syrup
1 teaspoon vanilla
Place the butter, brown sugar and walnuts in a frying pan and melt until it boils or bubbles. A cast iron pan works well because it's heavy and will be less likely to scorch. Place pineapples in the sugar mixture. Put cherries in the center of each pineapple. Cut the slices of pineapple into halves and line the sides of the frying pan with them (standing up on edge). In a bowl, combine sugar, flour, baking powder, salt and set aside. In seperate bowl, beat eggs until fluffy. Combine eggs, pineapple syrup, vanilla and
dry ingredients; mix until smooth. Pour batter into the pan being careful not to disturb the pineapples and cherries. Bake at 350 degrees for 35-45 minutes. Remove from oven and allow to stand for a few minutes to set and loosen the edges with a butter knife. Turn it upside down onto a serving dish. Serve while still warm.
