This Chocolate Zucchini Cake is bound to be a new favorite for chocolate lovers! Fabulously moist, decadently rich, and impossible to resist!

Provided by Trish - Mom On Timeout

Categories     Dessert

Number Of Ingredients 16

2 to 3 medium zucchinis (you want 2 to 3 cups shredded zucchini total)
7 tablespoons unsweetened cocoa powder
2 tablespoons butter (softened)
3 eggs (room temperature)
2 cups granulated sugar
1 ½ cups applesauce (unsweetened)
1 tablespoon vanilla extract
2 cups all purpose flour
1 teaspoon baking soda
1 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon (optional)
1 cup semi-sweet mini chocolate chips
¾ cup semisweet chocolate chips
3 tablespoons butter
1 tablespoon light corn syrup
¼ teaspoon vanilla extract

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 350°F. Grease a 10 cup bundt pan generously and set aside.
  • Grate the zucchinis and place on several layers of paper towels to absorb excess moisture. Use a towel and gently press the zucchini to release the moisture. You don't want it completely dry, just slightly less wet. I ended up with a couple of cups of grated zucchini but it honestly doesn't affect the recipe if you have more or less. I would say between 2 and 3 cups is perfect.
  • Whisk granulated sugar, eggs, applesauce, butter, and vanilla extract together in a large mixing bowl.
  • Whisk the flour, baking soda, salt, cinnamon and cocoa powder together. Reserve a couple tablespoons of the mixture, set aside.
  • Stir the flour mixture into the wet mixture just until combined.
  • Combine the chocolate chips with the reserved flour mixture. Add chocolate chips and grated zucchini to the batter and stir just until all ingredients are combined.
  • Pour the batter into the prepared bundt pan. Bake the cake for 55 to 65 minutes or until an inserted toothpick comes out with a few moist crumbs. Let the cake cool for ten minutes before inverting onto a plate. Let cake cool completely.

CHOCOLATE ZUCCHINI CAKE



Chocolate Zucchini Cake image

This recipe came from my high school friend's mother. It is so moist and delicious! My husband didn't want to have at first because of the zucchini, but he couldn't even tell it was in there! For a more healthy route, my sister-in-law does this: omit the butter, ¼ cup vegetable oil, and 3-3½ cups zucchini. Lastly, instead of buttermilk, you may use ½ cup milk+ ½ Tbsp apple cider vinegar or lemon juice- let mixture stand at least 5 minutes.

MOM'S FAVOURITE CHOCOLATE ZUCCHINI CAKE



Mom's Favourite Chocolate Zucchini Cake image

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.

MOM'S ZUCCHINI CHOCOLATE CAKE



Mom's Zucchini Chocolate Cake image

This is quite similar to all the other zucchini chocolate cakes posted here, but I know this combination works best for me! This makes a rich, dense cake that is fabulous with cream cheese icing or even without icing at all. The prep time may be shorter for others - I'm a very slow cook.

BEST EVER CHOCOLATE ZUCCHINI CAKE



Best Ever Chocolate Zucchini Cake image

I've been making this recipe for ions now. It was a collaboration between myself and a friend about 25 years ago. I haven't found one I like better. I hope you will agree. These loaves also freeze very well. Note: You could try using applesauce for some or all of the oil in order to reduce the fat content. However....I haven't tried it myself.
