Chocolate Zucchini Cake

Do you have baseball bat zucchini and don't know what to do with them? I have the perfect sinful recipe for you to use up all that zucchini. Who doesn't like Chocolate cake? I LOVE it. I think this recipe really brings out the amazingness of zucchini! The cake turns out so moist and dense. If you peel the zucchini first, your family will never even notice!

1/4 margarine or butter

1/2 cup oil

1 3/4 cup sugar

2 eggs

1 tsp vailla

1/2 cup buttermilk

2 cup shredded zucchini

2 1/2 cups flour

4 TBSP cocoa

1/2 tsp baking powder

1 tsp baking soda

1/2 tsp cinnamon

1 tsp cloves

In your mixer, whether it be Kitchenaid or Bosch, cream the butter, oil and sugar together. Add the eggs one at a time and make sure that the mixture is well blended. It should look nice and creamy. Add the buttermilk slowly to this mixture. Add the zucchini and the dry ingredients all at once and mix thoroughly. Pour into a greased/sprayed with PAM 9/13 pan. Bake at 325 for 45 minutes. Sprinkle with chocolate chips(optional).
