Recipe for the veggie lovers and the veggie haters!

I am posting this mostly for Jessica, who was looking for ways to get her daughter to eat veggies, but since it is so wonderful, I decided to post it here. This cake is so moist and delicious!

Chocolate Zucchini cake

1/2 cup butter
1/2 cup oil (or sub apple sauce)
1 3/4 cups sugar
2 eggs
1 Tablespoon Vanilla

cream together above ingredients. mix in:

1/2 cup sour milk (if you add a tsp of white vinegar to 1/2 cup of milk and let it set a few minutes, i will begin to curdle and you can then add it in. Or use sour cream.)
2 1/2 cups flour
4 Tablespoons Cocoa
1/2 tspbaking powder
1 tsp baking soda
1 tsp salt

mix this all together and then add in two cups of grated zucchini (I used 2 average sized zucchinis)
Sprinkle 1/2 cup of chocolate chips on top and bake at 325 for 40-45 minutes.

I didn't bother frosting mine... it was so good it didn't need frosting!

Enjoy!
