It's Zucchini Time

If zucchini has a bad rap at your house, it won't if you turn it into CAKE. This is probably my family's favorite cake of all time. It certainly is mine. I tasted someone else's zucchini cake recipe last night and that's when I realized that Aunt Sandra's recipe for this cake is definitely better!

Zucchini Cake

1 cube margarine
1 3/4 cup sugar
Mix together.

1/2 cup oil
1 t. vanilla
2 eggs
Add to sugar and mix.

1/2 cup buttermilk
2 1/2 cup flour
1 t. baking powder
4 1/2 T. cocoa
1 t. soda
1 t. salt
Mix in gently.

2 cups grated zucchini
Add and mix.

Put into 9x13 greased pan. Sprinkle on 3/4 cup brown sugar, 3/4 cup chocolate chips, 3/4 cups nuts. Bake 350 for 40 minutes.
