Categories     Cake     Chocolate     Vegetable     Dessert

Number Of Ingredients 13

1/2 cup butter, at room temperature
1/4 cup canola or other mild vegetable oil
1 3/4 cup sugar
2 large eggs
1 tsp. vanilla
2 1/4 cups all purpose flour
3/4 cup cocoa
1 tsp. baking powder
1 tsp. baking soda
1/2 tsp. salt
1 cup sour cream or plain yogurt
2 cups grated unpeeled zucchini (about 2 smallish, or 1 large)
3/4 cup chopped walnuts or chocolate chips, or both (optional)

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 325°F and spray a Bundt pan with nonstick spray. In a large bowl, beat the butter, oil and sugar on high speed with an electric mixer for 2-3 minutes, until thick and pale yellow. Beat in the eggs and vanilla. In a smaller bowl, stir together the flour, cocoa, baking powder, baking soda and salt. Add a third to the butter mixture and beat just until blended; add half the sour cream and do the same. Repeat with another third of the flour mixture, the rest of the sour cream, and the rest of the flour. Stir in the zucchini and the nuts and/or chocolate chips, if you're using them, and pour the thick batter into the pan, smoothing the top. Bake for an hour, until the top is cracked and springy to the touch. Invert onto a plate or cake stand while still warm. Serves 8-16.

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.

Chocolate and Zucchini Praline Bundt Cake image

Quite a different flavor combo, but this chocolate zucchini praline Bundt cake totally works. The cinnamon chocolate flavor is well balanced. Apples and zucchini give the cake a moist texture. Crunchy and sweet, the topping is quite tasty. It will be a treat for your family and friends who get a slice.

ZUCCHINI FUDGE BUNDT CAKE WITH CHOCOLATE GLAZE {OR} CHOCOLATE ZUCCHINI BREAD



Zucchini Fudge Bundt Cake with Chocolate Glaze {or} Chocolate Zucchini Bread image

Zucchini Fudge Bundt Cake with Chocolate Glaze is so moist and decadent, nobody will ever guess that it's concealing a pound of zucchini and 100% whole wheat flour! If you prefer, you can bake it in two loaf pans and leave off the glaze to call it Chocolate Zucchini Bread instead.

Provided by @MakeItYours

Number Of Ingredients 19

1 pound zucchini
2 tablespoons sugar
2 (1-ounce) squares unsweetened chocolate
2 cups whole wheat pastry flour
1 tablespoon unsweetened cocoa powder
1 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon salt
3 eggs, at room temperature
2 cups sugar
1/2 cup unsalted butter, melted and cooled
1/2 cup applesauce
2 teaspoons pure vanilla extract
1/2 cup sour cream
1 cup mini semisweet chocolate chips
1 tablespoon flour
3/4 cup semisweet chocolate chips
3 tablespoons butter
1 tablespoon light corn syrup
1/4 teaspoon pure vanilla extract

Steps:

  • Adjust rack to center position of oven and preheat to 350°F. Generously coat a 9- to 10-inch (12 cup) Bundt pan with baking spray (the kind that includes flour).
  • Using a box grater or food processor, grate the zucchini (you should end up with approximately 3 cups). Stir in 2 tablespoons sugar and place in a large colander set over a bowl. As you prepare the rest of the batter ingredients, the sugar will draw the moisture out of the zucchini. Occasionally press down on it to squeeze more water into the bowl.
  • Finely chop unsweetened chocolate, place in a bowl, and heat in the microwave for 30 seconds; stir. Heat in additional 15-second increments, stirring after each one, until chocolate is completely melted and smooth. Allow to cool.
  • In a medium bowl, whisk together whole wheat pastry flour, cocoa powder, baking soda, and salt. In a large bowl, use an electric mixer to blend together eggs, sugar, melted chocolate, melted butter, applesauce, and vanilla until smooth. Mix in drained zucchini. Turn mixer down to low and stir in half of the flour mixture, followed by all of the sour cream and then the remaining flour mixture. In a small bowl, toss mini chocolate chips with tablespoon of flour. Add to batter and mix until just incorporated, taking care not to overbeat.
  • Evenly pour/spread batter into prepared pan, place in preheated oven, and bake for 1 hour, or until a toothpick inserted in center comes out clean. Remove cake from the oven and allow it to rest on a cooling rack for 10 minutes before turning it out onto the rack to finish cooling.
  • In a small pot, melt butter over low heat. Remove pot from heat and add chocolate chips, stirring until they are melted and combined with butter. Stir in corn syrup and vanilla until smooth. Immediately pour glaze over warm cake, gently spreading it so that it trickles down sides. Allow cake and glaze to cool completely before slicing.
