Hi all!
Have any extra garden zucchini this year? No picture, but a great recipe from my MIL to share. I love making this because even Jeremy loves to eat it!
Chocolate Zucchini Cake
1/2 c. butter (softened)
1-3/4 c. sugar
1/2 c. oil
2 eggs
1/2 c. sour milk (make it sour with 2 tsp. lemon juice)
1 t. vanilla
Cream the above, adding each ingredient as you go. (If you prefer less sugar or want to substitute the oil for applesauce, I'm sure it would turn out just as moist and yummy!)
Add:
2-1/2 c. flour
4 t. cocoa
1/2 t. baking powder
1 t. baking soda
1/2 t. cloves
1/2 t. cinnamon (or more if you like)
1/2 c. chocolate chips
2 c. zucchini
Mix just until dry ingredients are moistened. Bake in a greased 8x8 pan at 325 degrees for 60-80 min.
ENJOY!
P.S. I'm loving the garden produce harvest right now. After the heat wave, we didn't have much except jalapenos and basil, but my mom's tomato crop in Iowa was amazing and she's shared several red beauties and lots of yellow squash with us.
