Chocolate Zucchini Cake With Cream Cheese Frosting
This cake is moist and fudgy, a great way to use up some of your summer zucchini. Would also be good with chocolate ganache, a thin white icing or glaze or even just sprinkled with chocolate chips while hot. *i used hershey's special dark cocoa- it's a mix of dutch and regular unsweetened so i think either would work here
Steps
Cream sugar , oil and butter.
Add eggs , yogurt and vanilla.
Sift dry ingredients and add to wet- batter will be really thick , moisture from the zucchini will come out while cooking.
Fold in zucchini and chocolate chips.
Spread in greased 13x9 in pan and bake at 325 for 30-35 minutes.
Cool completely and frost.
Beat cream cheese and butter until fluffy , beat in vanilla and powdered sugar until smooth- i start adding it by 1 / 2 cup increments and taste along the way.
Refrigerate until serving.
