   This recipe makes 2 jars. Sterilize two 1-pint,
   straight-sided, wide-mouth canning jars, lids and rings by
   boiling for 10 minutes; set aside.
   In a small bowl, stir together flour, sugar, baking soda
   and cinnamon, if desired. Set aside. In a medium sauce pan,
   combine butter or margarine, water and cocoa powder; heat
   and stir until butter or margarine is melted and mixture is
   well-blended. Remove from heat; stir in flour ixture. Add
   buttermilk, egg and vanilla; beat by hand until smooth.
   Stir in nuts. Pour mixture into the prepared canning jars;
   place jars onto a cookie sheet.
   
   Preheat oven to 325 degrees. Bake for 35 to 40 minutes or
   until a pick inserted deep into each cake comes out clean.
   Remove cakes from the oven, one at a time. Place a lid,
   then a ring onto the jars and screw ring down tightly.
   Place on counter to cool. You'll know jars have sealed when
   you hear the "plinking" sound. Store in a cool, dry place.
