Provided by Charlotte J

Categories     Dessert

Time 1h20m

Yield 18 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 13

1/2 cup butter
1/2 cup vegetable oil
1 3/4 cups sugar
2 large eggs
1/2 cup buttermilk or 1/2 cup sour milk
1 teaspoon vanilla
1/4 cup cocoa
2 1/2 cups flour
1 teaspoon baking soda
1 teaspoon salt
2 cups zucchini, grated
3/4 cup chocolate chips
1/2 cup walnuts

Steps:

  • Cream butter then add oil and sugar; mix.
  • Add next 8 ingredients; mix well.
  • Fold in the chips and nuts by hand.
  • Put in a greased and floured 9 x 13 pan.
  • Bake at 325° for 1 hour or until done.

Tips:

  • Use a food processor or blender to finely grate the zucchini. This will help it blend seamlessly into the batter and prevent it from becoming watery.
  • Don't overmix the batter. Overmixing can result in a tough, dense cake. Mix just until the ingredients are combined.
  • Use a baking pan that is 9x13 inches or larger. A smaller pan will result in a thicker, denser cake.
  • Don't overbake the cake. A toothpick inserted into the center of the cake should come out with just a few moist crumbs attached.
  • Let the cake cool completely before frosting it. This will help prevent the frosting from melting.

Conclusion:

Chocolate Zucchini Cake II is a delicious and moist cake that is perfect for any occasion. It's easy to make and can be enjoyed by people of all ages. The addition of zucchini makes the cake extra moist and flavorful, while the chocolate chips add a touch of sweetness.
