Thank you for sharing Giulia this is next on my to-bake list. Sounds Divine
CHOCOLATE ZUCCHINI CAKE A LA JOAN IN WINNIPEG
2½ Cups All-Purp. unsifted Flour
½ Cup unsweetened cocoa powder
2½ Teasp. Baking Powder
1½ Teasp. Baking Soda
1 Cup Chopped Walnuts or Pecans
2 Teasp. Cinnamon
¾ Cup Cooking Oil
1 Cup white sugar
1 cup Light Brown sugar
Grated Rind of 1 medium orange
3 Large Eggs
2 Teasp. Vanilla
2 Cups. Finely grated, unpeeled zucchini (2-9) (after grating, I squeeze out most of the liquid with a spoon until I have 2 cups of just the zucchini.
½ Cup Milk
Generously grease & flour a 10" tube or bundt pan. In a medium bowl, blend together dry ingredients & nuts.
In a large bowl with an electric mixer beat sugars gradually into oil.
Beat eggs in one at a time.
Then stir in vanilla, rind & zucchini.
Add dry ingredients to the creamed mixture alternately with the milk.
(Main mixing bowl has creamed mixture. Add 1/3 dry then 1/2 of milk, then another 3rd dry, rest of milk, the last 3rd dry.)
Make three dry and two liquid additions, combining lightly after each.
Pour batter into pan and bake at 350 for 1 hour. Cool cake in pan 15 minutes. Then remove & cool completely. Dust with icing sugar.
(Note: after grating, I squeeze out most of the liquid until I have 2 cups of just the zucchini.)
It's so amazing light and moist. Hope you like it!
Giulia Your cake recipe is baking In the oven. The batter tasted delicious and smelled very good. I was concerned it seemed to be a lot of batter for a bundt pan. I am baking it for a gift. Maybe they will save me a piece. Maybe.
"Maybe they will save me a piece. Maybe." (INSIST UPON IT! lol) You've gotta taste it!
I can taste it by smelling. It smells so so good. I will have to bake another one.
15 minutes to cool and remove from pan.
You're making my mouth water. Now I'm going to have to bake one!
Finito
A little heavy on the dusting because I used a sifter to dust icing and it came out pretty fast. lol I could brush it off but afraid I will mess it up. Thanks for the recipe.
I don't EVER think it is too heavy on the dusting,LOL!
Looks amazing!!!
