| This is one way to use your abundance of zucchini that most people like. Make a chocolate zucchini cake. |
The ingredients:
- ½ cup butter, room temperature
- ½ cup vegetable oil
- 1¾ cups granulated sugar
- 2 tsp vanilla
- 1 tsp baking soda
- ½ tsp baking powder
- 1 tsp salt
- 2 eggs
- ½ cup sour cream
- 2¾ cups flour
- ¾ cup cocoa powder
- 3 cups grated zucchini
- ¾ cup semi sweet chocolate chips
Mix this all together and pour it into a greased 9X13 pan. I also lined mine with parchment. Bake at 325 degrees for about an hour until a toothpick stuck in the middle comes out clean.
This is very dense and moist. Frost with your favorite frosting after it cools completely. I made a vanilla buttercream by beating 1/2 C. butter with 4 T. of milk, 1 T. vanilla extract and 1 pound of confectioners sugar. I keep this cake in the refrigerator.
