Some years back I grew too many zucchini's, so I was looking for a zucchini cake; found this one and have made it for many years. It's still my favourite. I usually check with a light finger pressure for bounce back or I use a toothpick for doneness as I find 45 minutes in the oven is not enough for my oven. Ingredients:
1/4 cup butter |
1/2 cup oil |
1 3/4 cups sugar |
2 eggs |
1 teaspoon vanilla |
1/2 cup buttermilk |
2 1/2 cups flour |
1/4 cup cocoa powder |
1/2 teaspoon baking powder |
1/2 teaspoon baking soda |
1/2 teaspoon cinnamon |
1/2 teaspoon clove |
2 cups grated zucchini |
1/4 cup chocolate chips |
Directions:
1. Cream together butter, oil, sugar, eggs, vanilla and buttermilk. 2. Sift dry ingredients and add to creamed mixture. 3. Mix in zucchini and fold in chocolate chips. 4. Bake in a buttered bundt pan. 5. Dust with icing sugar before serving. |
