Chocolate Zucchini cake
Description:

Not as strange as it sounds, the zucchini in this recipe provides moisture and doesn’t really contribute a lot of flavour.

Ingredients description
1/2cup unsalted butter, melted

1/2cup canola oil
1 3/8cup white sugar
2 eggs
2 cups zucchini, skin on, shredded
2 ½ cups all purpose white flour
1/4tsp. Baking soda dissolved in 1/2cup buttermilk
1/2tsp. Baking powder
½ tsp. Cinnamon
4 tbsp. Cocoa powder
1 tsp. Vanilla extract

Preparation

Pre heat the oven to 350 degrees.

In a bowl mix together the butter, oil, sugar and vanilla. Beat in the eggs and mix well. Beat in the shredded zucchini. In a separate bowl mix together the flour, baking powder, cinnamon and cocoa.

Mix the baking soda/milk mixture into the eggs and fold the dry ingredients into the egg mixture. Fold together and pour into a nine inch round cake pan

Place the cake in the preheated oven and bake for 30 minutes or until a knife inserted in the centre comes out clean.
