Easy and Delicious Zucchini Cake

by

If we have already arrived at “quick and easy”, of course a zucchini cake may not be missing. The combination of vegetables in the cake and chocolate on top makes for a super juicy cake experience that is made really quickly and even my boys, otherwise real vegetable fine, tastes great every time. So zucchini cake is not a classic for nothing. Refined with a little cinnamon, even boring zucchinis become a highlight.

By the way… Despite the vegetables, this is not a Weightwatchers project, but so what? A sheet cake like this is and always will be a sweet treat. But now, let’s bake.
