Incredibly easy to make, and even easier to eat. Whoever first put zucchinis in cake deserves some sort of medal.
I like this recipe as it’s not as chocolatey as some zucchini cakes. The cake is moist and rich and studded with semi sweet chocolate chips, so you still get a good chocolate hit.
Freshly grated zucchini adds a soft, lush texture to cake which can’t be beaten. I actually think the flavor of this cake is better on the second day – the challenge is not to eat it all before then.
This Chocolate Chip Zucchini Cake is so good it doesn’t even need frosting or icing.
If you can’t get your kids (or even some adults) to eat their vegetables, slipping in a few sneaky zucchinis has got to be a good thing. Just smile when they ask for seconds…
