Peace Like a River Brought Forth Piece of a Chocolate Cake

Thanks to everyone who came to book club on Tuesday - it was good to see so many people there! And thanks to Erica who brought the Zucchini Chocolate Cake. As promised, here is the recipe:

Zucchini Chocolate Cake
2 cups flour
2 cups sugar
1/2 cup unsweetened cocoa
1 tsp baking powder
1 tsp baking soda
1 tsp ground cinnamon
1/2 tsp salt
3 cups shredded zucchini
3/4 cup semisweet chocolate baking chips
1 cup salad oil
4 large eggs

In a large bowl, mix flour, sugar, cocoa, baking powder, baking soda, cinnamon, and salt. Stir in zucchini, and chocolate chips. In a small bowl, beat oil and eggs; add to dry mixture and mix well.Spread batter in an oiled 9 by13 inch baking dish or pan.

Bake in a 325° oven until a toothpick inserted in center comes out clean, 50 to 55 minutes. (recipe from Erica's friend Judy Perez)

It sure was a nice treat for such delightful conversation. ~ Jen
