Moist delicious chocolate and zucchini. What! Veggies in a chocolate cake! This guilty pleasure is not so guilty after all! Yahoo!chocolate-zucchini-cake

Not only is this cake better for you but don’t let anyone know they are eating veggies! This cake is moist and really goes great with that 4 o’clock tea green tea break.

Ingredients:

  • Two cups gluten-free flour ( Bob’s Red Mill)
  • 2 tsp gluten-free baking powder
  • 2 eggs
  • One cup of powdered baking chocolate
  • 1/4 cup applesauce
  • 1/4 cup coconut oil melted
  • 1 medium zucchini grated
  • 1/4 tsp vanilla extract
  • 1/4 tsp salt
  • 11/2 cups sugar
  • 1/2 cup dairy-free chocolate chips (optional)

Beat egg and sugar add vanilla and add the rest of the ingredients stir until the batter is well mixed, then pour into a 9×9 inch greased cake pan. I put parchment on the bottom of my pan.  Bake at 350 degrees for 35 minutes (in my convection oven) but please check with a knife to see if it is baked all the way through, then let it cool before dumping, and enjoy !!!!!
