Shelley Richardson is a talented pastry chef and creative food designer whose recipes are well developed! I recently baked this Chocolate Zucchini Cake and now that we are in Zucchini Garden Invasion Time.....this is a great way to present a lovely cake!
Last week I had a recipe for Zucchini Walnut Cream Cheese Bars and here with this cake is another winner for zucchini:You will need 3 cups flour, 1 1/2tsp baking powder, 1 tsp baking soda, 1 tsp salt, 4 eggs, 3 cups sugar, 3 squares baking chocolate melted and cooled, 1 1/2 cups canola oil, 2 cups shredded zucchini and powdered sugar for garnish
Preheat oven to 325 degrees F. Grease and flour a 10" tube pan. Ina a med. bowl sift flour, baking powder, soda and salt. Set aside. In a large mixing bowl beat eggs, sugar, 1/4 cup at a time. Add chocolate and then oil.
Add flour mix and blend well - fold in zucchini. When blended well,pour into cake pan. Bake for 1 hour 15 minutes Cool 15 minutes before removing cake from pan to sprinkle with confectioners sugar
HIGH ALTITUDE PEOPLE: Yes - here were my changes for Colorado decrease baking powder to 1 1/4 tsp, decrease baking soda to 3/4 tsp, decrease sugar to 23/4 cups and cecreased canola oil by 1/8 cup!
