Chocolate Zucchini Snack Cake

Shredded zucchini keeps cake moist without affecting the flavor. Skip the frosting...sprinkle the top with chocolate chips and nuts.

Love this recipe. I've been making it for my kids for a few years and finally tried doubling it. Works great! Double everything and use a 9x13 pan. Glass pan approx. 30 min. at 325 degrees. It's nice a sweet without all the gooey icing of a regular cake. Yummy.
