Chocolate Zucchini Cake Recipe
CHOCOLATE ZUCCHINI CAKE
1-1/2 Cups SUGAR
1/2 cup softened BUTTER
1/4 cup vegetable OIL
1 teaspoon VANILLA
2 EGGS
2-1/2 cups all-purpose FLOUR
1/4 cup unsweetened COCOA
1 teaspoon BAKING SODA
½ cup BUTTERMILK
2 cups shredded ZUCCHINI (do not have to peel, preferably without large seeds)
1/2 to 1 cup CHOCOLATE CHIPS
½ cup chopped NUTS
In a large bowl combine sugar, butter, oil, vanilla, and eggs. Beat well. Add flour, cocoa, baking soda, and buttermilk. Blend well. Fold in zucchini, chocolate chips, and nuts. Spread in a Pammed 13 x 9 inch pan. Bake at 350 for 35 to 45 minutes, until toothpick inserted in center comes out clean. Cool completely. This is delicious unfrosted, or if you must, frost with whatever you wish.
