Ingredients
Method
- Preheat the oven and grate the zucchinis. Butter and flour the pan you are going to bake the cake in
- Mix the dry ingredients and wet ingredients, then combine them until a smooth mixture forms
- Pour it into the pan and bake it till its cooked through. Let cool and slice into pieces. Drizzle chocolate sauce or caramel sauce before serving.
Notes
- Use chocolate ganache in the recipe if you want to, it is not a necessity but if you want to have it in a more chocolaty flavor, you can do so.
- You can also try Chocolate zucchini cake with greek yoghurt, using yoghurt as a thickening element so the cake is more creamy in texture and adds a great flavor to it.
- Make sure you measure everything that you put in the batters. In the case of baking, measuring everything is of utmost importance.
- If you don't want to add zucchinis, you can also try out a variation of the recipe- Chocolate yellow squash cake. You just replace the zucchinis with the yellow squash cake. It takes a bit of trial and error during the taste tests. But eventually they are not so hard once you get the hang of it.
- Press a dry and clean towel on the grated zucchini. This will soak up a lot of excess water the zucchinis will be retaining after being grated thinly. The dried zucchinis will aid in a better tasting zucchini chocolate cake.
