Then the other day, my very good friend Ann Polson shared a wonderful recipe and a zucchini with me. And now I am sharing with you. You're welcome.
(And while the picture is not one I took, it is what the cake looks like, so I figured since my cake is all but gone, I could borrow someone else's picture.)
Zucchini Cake
1/2 C. butter
1/2 C. oil
1 3/4 sugar
2 eggs
1 tsp. vanilla
1/2 C. sour cream
Combine ingredients.
2 1/2 C. flour - do not sift
1/2 tsp. salt
1 tsp. baking soda
4 T. cocoa
Mix together wet ingredients, then add to dry ingredients and mix.
Add: 2 C. grated zucchini
Pour into 9 x 13 pan.
Sprinkle top with:
1/4 C. sugar
1/3 C. chocolate chips (or more)
chopped pecans or walnuts (But why would you use walnuts when you could use pecans?)
Bake at 350 degrees for 40-45 minutes.
Then I highly recommend eating the first piece while it is still warm, with a large glass of milk, as this is the best possible way of eating cake. (Especially when your family are all asleep in bed.) The best part . . . you can't even taste the zucchini in the cake, it just makes it super moist and delicious!
Also - a shout out to Kade's football team - Rigby 1 7th graders - they won their third game tonight which makes them 3-0 for the season. Undefeated, baby!

I love eating things when everyone's asleep. It is my evil genius favorite. I wish I could have a piece w/ you.
You don't even like zucchini bread? Holy cow it's so good. I am pretty excited about this cake though, thanks for sharing! By the way, the word captcha-ma-call-it that I have to type for this comment is "gracorsu". What the crap is that?
I think "Gracorsu" would be a great name for Jordyn's first born boy.
My captcha-ma-call-it for this post is "Worlince" and I am totally going to use it for my next born, boy or girl.
Yumm!! that one looks good. GO KADE!!
