ZUCCHINI CHOCOLATE CAKE

I'm still working on that giant zucchini that my friend gave me. Two batches of zucchini muffins and a chocolate zucchini cake later, I STILL have about 2 cups of grated zucchini left. I think it's a little ridiculous. But at least we get to enjoy all of these yummy desserts out of such a wonderful vegetable.


Ingredients:
2 cups all-purpose flour
2 cups white sugar
3/4 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
2 teaspoons baking soda
1 teaspoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
4 eggs
1 cup vegetable oil
3 cups grated zucchini
3/4 cups chopped walnuts

Directions:
Preheat oven to 350 F. Grease a 9x13 pan.
Stir together the flour, sugar, cocoa powder, baking soda, baking powder, salt, and cinnamon.
Add the eggs and oil and mix well.
Fold in nuts and zucchini.
Pour into the greased pan.
Bake for 50-60 minutes until done (when a knife inserted in the cake is clean coming out)


Nothing too complicated about this at all, and yet it comes out so delicious. It's nice and fudgy and chocolatey but not too much. Definitely try it.
