Mandarin Chocolate Zucchini Cake

Amount Measure Ingredient -- Preparation Method
-------- ------------ --------------------------------
2 C grated zucchini -- 1 lb, about 2 medium
2 C sugar
2 1/2 cups flour
3 eggs
1/2 Cup + 1 TBSP butter
3 Tablespoons oil
2/3 cup cocoa
1/2 cup milk
2 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
1 1/2 teaspoons baking soda
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 tsp cinnamon
2 tsp vanilla
2 tsp orange rind (more)

Bundt pan
350F 65 min.
Toothpick test for doneness.

Grate the zucchini into a strainer first, and allow to drain while you
assemble the remaining ingredients. Prepare the bundt pan with pan release
spray; set aside.
Cream together butter & sugar. Beat in the eggs one at a time. Gradually
beat in the flour, leavening agents and seasonings, chocolate, and milk.
Blend in zucchini. Bake as directed. Frost if desired when cool.

Description: Bundt-type chocolate cake with orange flavor.
First made this in 1986. We had a garden full of zucchini that year.

NOTES : 9 TBSP cocoa + 3 TBSP oil = 3 x 1oz squares of melted baking
chocolate if you should choose to substitute that instead, as per standard
substitution rate. I used cocoa because that's what I had that day, but
melted baking chocolate is good, too.
