    Ahhh, love zucchini cake (an excellent way to use up excess amounts of the lovely vegetable) and the addition of chocolate chips or raisins is a great touch too. Happy spring :)

    I heard a lot about zucchini and chocolate combination but somehow the though of adding zucchini as dessert never sound that great to me. You are clearing my doubts. This looks delicious!
