This chocolate zucchini cake is very delicious, super moist, and tender. This cake doesn’t really need any frosting, but the added sweetness of the maple frosting makes it just irresistible.

- Sour Milk (Homemade Buttermilk)
Instructions
- Grease and flour 9 x 13 x 2-inch baking pan. Preheat oven to 325 degrees Fahrenheit.
- Cream margarine, oil, and sugar.
- Add eggs, vanilla, and sour milk; beat with a mixer.
- Mix all the dry ingredients and add to creamed mixture; beat well with a mixer.
- Stir in diced zucchini. Spoon batter into greased and floured pan; sprinkle tops with chocolate chips. Tip: To finely dice large zucchini, slice it crosswise in 1/4-inch slices. Take each slice, chop it into half and remove and discard the center half-moon of pulp and seeds. The remaining half-circle of firm fresh, 1/4-inch thick, can be easily diced into 1/4-inch dice. If the skin is tender, it will not need to be peeled.
- Bake at 325 degrees for 40-45 minutes or until toothpick or cake tester comes out clean and dry. Sour MIlk (Homemade Buttermilk)
