Decadent Double Chocolate Zucchini Extravaganza Cake
Ingredients:
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- ¾ cup unsweetened cocoa powder
- 2 teaspoons baking soda
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- ½ teaspoon salt
- 3 large eggs (at room temperature)
- 1 ¼ cups vegetable oil
- ¾ cup granulated sugar
- ¾ cup packed light brown sugar
- 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
- 3 cups grated zucchini
- 1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips
Chocolate Ganache:
- 1 ½ cups semisweet chocolate chips
- 1 cup heavy whipping cream
Instructions:
- Preheat your oven to 350 degrees and prepare a 9×13 inch baking pan by greasing or lining it with parchment paper.
- In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, cocoa powder, baking soda, baking powder, and salt.
- In a large bowl, combine the eggs, vegetable oil, granulated sugar, brown sugar, vanilla extract, and grated zucchini. Mix until well combined.
- Add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients and mix just until combined. Fold in the chocolate chips.
- Pour the batter into the prepared pan and bake for 30-35 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out with no wet batter.
- Prepare the chocolate ganache by placing chocolate chips in a bowl. Heat the heavy cream on the stovetop over low heat until small bubbles surface. Pour the warm cream over the chocolate chips, cover, and let it sit for about 10 minutes. Stir until smooth.
- Allow the ganache to cool for 15 minutes before pouring it over the cake. Spread it gently with a spatula. Let the cake set for 30 minutes, then refrigerate.
