Chocolate Zucchini Cake Recipe #SundaySupper

I jinxed myself. I said at work a bit back that I really don’t like zucchini. And then that very evening, the evening that I forgot to customize my CSA box I got a bunch of zucchini. DOOMED! But fear not, zucchini is great masked with chocolate. So I decided a “healthy” cake was in order. Take that zucchini! You will not foil my plans to take over the world. This #SundaySupper is all about picnics (so many holidays coming up) and this is a perfect picnic cake. No icing to smoosh so it’s quite portable. You can even cut it up beforehand but if you have a group it’s always fun to dig in right on the blanket. Don’t even need a fork!

Dramatic enough? If you don’t feel like blending your zucchini you can shred it for this recipe. I used to always just shred but this time I tried it in the blender and I love that the texture really disappears. It makes for a watery batter but works out in the end.
