Chocolate Zucchini Cake With Custard Sauce Recipes

CHOCOLATE ZUCCHINI CAKE

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350°F. Grease a 10 cup bundt pan generously and set aside.
• Grate the zucchinis and place on several layers of paper towels to absorb excess moisture. Use a towel and gently press the zucchini to release the moisture. You don't want it completely dry, just slightly less wet. I ended up with a couple of cups of grated zucchini but it honestly doesn't affect the recipe if you have more or less. I would say between 2 and 3 cups is perfect.
