Just add chunks of zucchini? Not shredded or mashed?
Could I omit the chocolate chips, and add more cocoa?
Hi, Cherry. You can certainly omit the chocolate chips. Also, we would suggest trying the recipe with the cocoa powder recommended, then adding more if you think you would like to punch up the chocolate flavor.
This cake is fantastic! This is the only chocolate cake I will ever make from now on. So moist and flavorful, and not too sweet!
Buttermilk instead of sour milk ???
It does sound wonderful... however I'm looking for a true fudge chocolate zucchini cake. A coworkers wife brought one in for us to enjoy at work and MAN!! She gave me the recipe but it seemed to have lost it. They moved the company out of the country several years ago and I've lost touch😒
Stick to this recipe, except substituting buttermilk for soured milk and add two more eggs. Rich and fudgey.
Any suggestions to sub out the butter/oil?? Although oil I may opt to go coconut oil as it does tend to enhance chocolate. Could butter be replaced with applesauce or something else? Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Thank you!
Hi, J in MA. Coconut oil is a good idea. As far as the butter substitution, if you want to use unsweetened applesauce be sure to use half as much as the butter measurement. Since this recipe calls for 1/2 cup margarine/butter, use 1/4 cup unsweetened applesauce. You could also try substituting with mashed avocado. That sub is done in equal amounts.
Sounds delicious. Will try.
