This chocolate zucchini cake recipe is moist and delicious. This is a great way to use extra zucchini from the garden. The zucchini almost melts when you bake it, so no one will know that you sneaked a vegetable in this dessert.

This is a very moist recipe, so you can eat it plain. I like it with a vanilla buttercream or even a cream cheese icing.

I use applesauce instead of oil to make mine. This makes it light and fluffy.

You can also add walnuts if you want. We don't like nuts in our cake, so I never add them.
