Categories     Dessert

Number Of Ingredients 16

2 to 3 medium zucchinis (you want 2 to 3 cups shredded zucchini total)
7 tablespoons unsweetened cocoa powder
2 tablespoons butter (softened)
3 eggs (room temperature)
2 cups granulated sugar
1 ½ cups applesauce (unsweetened)
1 tablespoon vanilla extract
2 cups all purpose flour
1 teaspoon baking soda
1 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon (optional)
1 cup semi-sweet mini chocolate chips
¾ cup semisweet chocolate chips
3 tablespoons butter
1 tablespoon light corn syrup
¼ teaspoon vanilla extract

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 350°F. Grease a 10 cup bundt pan generously and set aside.
  • Grate the zucchinis and place on several layers of paper towels to absorb excess moisture. Use a towel and gently press the zucchini to release the moisture. You don't want it completely dry, just slightly less wet. I ended up with a couple of cups of grated zucchini but it honestly doesn't affect the recipe if you have more or less. I would say between 2 and 3 cups is perfect.
  • Whisk granulated sugar, eggs, applesauce, butter, and vanilla extract together in a large mixing bowl.
  • Whisk the flour, baking soda, salt, cinnamon and cocoa powder together. Reserve a couple tablespoons of the mixture, set aside.
  • Stir the flour mixture into the wet mixture just until combined.
  • Combine the chocolate chips with the reserved flour mixture. Add chocolate chips and grated zucchini to the batter and stir just until all ingredients are combined.
  • Pour the batter into the prepared bundt pan. Bake the cake for 55 to 65 minutes or until an inserted toothpick comes out with a few moist crumbs. Let the cake cool for ten minutes before inverting onto a plate. Let cake cool completely.

CHOCOLATE CHIP ZUCCHINI BUNDT CAKE



Chocolate Chip Zucchini Bundt Cake image

This cake is so moist but you must use Duncan Hines cake mix. When zucchini isn't available, it is just as good without it. I put a white chocolate or chocolate ganache on it.

1 box duncan hines devil's food cake mix
1 box instant chocolate pudding (small)
2 c zucchini, grated
1 tsp vanilla
4 eggs
3/4 c oil
1 c chocolate chips

Steps:

  • 1. Mix the dry ingredients; add all other ingredients and beat until well blended. Grease a bundt pan. Bake at 325 degrees for 1 hour - 1 hour 10 minutes.
  • 2. Ganache: 1 cup white chocolate chips or dark chocolate chips; 1/2 cup heavy cream. Mix in microwave for 20 minutes; stir; continue in microwave for about a minute, stirring at 20 minute intervals (until the chips are all melted). Allow to cool slightly; pour over cake. I have used both white and dark chocolate for this cake and it is very good with either one. This particular cake has the white ganache on it.
