CHOCOLATE ZUCCHINI CAKE

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees.Line your 9x13 or 2- 8 inch cake pans with parchment. This step is optional, but makes it so much easier to remove the cake from the pan when you are done. You can see how I did it in the photo on post. If you don't want to use parchment paper, simply butter or spray the pan. You can also lightly coat with flour if you want to ensure an easy removal.Mix flours, baking powder, salt and cocoa in small bowl and set aside. Next add sugar and oil to medium sized bowl, mix well. I like to mix with a rubber spatula, but use whatever you feel comfortable using. I also prefer to mix this by hand as it is really easy to over mix this batter. Add in eggs. Mix to combine. Then add in the vanilla and yogurt. Again, mix to combine. Dry ingredients are next, mix only to combine. We want to be careful at this point to not over mix. Last up are the chocolate chips and grated zucchini. Again, only mix to combine. Pour the batter into your prepared pan. Place immediately into oven.Mine took about about 23 minutes to bake. it could take anywhere from 20-35 minutes. The time will vary depending on actual temp of your oven, thickness of pan altitude etc. Test with a toothpick. Now, you don't want it to come out completely dry. If you have a little on the toothpick, that is perfect. I always under bake my whole grain baked good just a touch as they will absorb more moisture even after you remove them from the oven. This is called carry over cooking. I wanted to ice mine when it was still a little warm. I did this because I wanted my icing to ooze on the cake. It was a personal choice, of course. If you prefer to wait until it cools do that!Now, sit back and enjoy. You deserve it!
