Elizabeths Chocolate Zucchini Cake Recipes

ZUCCHINI CHOCOLATE CAKE

Steps:

• Preheat your oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit and prepare a 9-inch by 13-inch rectangular pan (or equivalent size) by greasing it and lining the bottom and sides with parchment paper.
• In a large bowl, combine the melted butter, oil, sugar, eggs, vanilla, buttermilk, and shredded zucchini with a whisk until well combined.
• To a separate bowl (or in the same bowl, on top of the wet ingredients), add the flour, cocoa, baking soda, cinnamon, cloves, and salt.
• Mix together well with a spatula until combined and no streaks of flour remain.
• Pour the batter into the prepared pan immediately and sprinkle the chocolate chips over the top of the batter.
• Bake at 350 degrees Fahrenheit for 25 to 30 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the middle of the cake comes out clean.
• Allow the cake to cool in the pan until cooled completely before slicing and serving.

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.
• Whisk granulated sugar, eggs, applesauce, butter, and vanilla extract together in a large mixing bowl.
• Whisk the flour, baking soda, salt, cinnamon and cocoa powder together. Reserve a couple tablespoons of the mixture, set aside.
• Stir the flour mixture into the wet mixture just until combined.
• Combine the chocolate chips with the reserved flour mixture. Add chocolate chips and grated zucchini to the batter and stir just until all ingredients are combined.
• Pour the batter into the prepared bundt pan. Bake the cake for 55 to 65 minutes or until an inserted toothpick comes out with a few moist crumbs. Let the cake cool for ten minutes before inverting onto a plate. Let cake cool completely.
