ZUCCHINI RECIPE OF THE WEEK

DSCF0652 Wow!  Just tried out yet another zucchini recipe that turned out GREAT.  So here it is in detail:

                                              ZUCCHINI CHOCOLATE BARS

 

Beat 3 eggs and add 1 c. oil.  Then slowly add 2 cups of sugar and beat.  Blend in 2 c. grated zucchini. 

In another bowl, combine 2-1/4 c. flour, 1/2 c. cocoa and 1 t. baking soda.

Add dry ingredients to egg mixture, then stir in 1 T. white vinegar.  At this point, I add a cup of chopped nuts.

Put in 9 X 13 ungreased pan and bake for 1 hour at 350 degrees.

DSCF0653 You can SEE the chunks of zucchini!

These are SO easy to make and yummy even without frosting---almost more of a cake than a brownie in texture.  There are so many wonderful ways to use zucchini---and it’s a good thing, ‘cause we got tons of them!

Here is a cute pic of a very friendly cat that kept me company at a tuning last week---here’s Bunkie:  Bunkie
