Seems like the logical solution for all the zucchini Dad grows in that awesome garden of his. ☺

Ingredients:

• 1/2 cup softened oleo (may I suggest butter)
• 1 tsp vanilla
• 1/2 cup oil
• 1/2 cup sour milk
• 1 3/4 cups sugar
• 6 Tbsp cocoa
• 2 1/2 cups AP flour
• 1 tsp baking soda
• 1/2 tsp salt
• 1/2 cup finely chopped nuts
• 1/2 cup chocolate chips
• 2 cups finely ground zucchini
• 2 eggs

*Unless you have some sour milk begging to be used in your refrigerator, you can make your own by adding a little vinegar to the measuring cup before pouring in the milk. Let it sit for 5-ish minutes.

Cream oil, butter & sugar. Add eggs, vanilla & sour milk. Beat well with mixer or by hand. Stir in zucchini. Add dry sifted ingredients.

Pour batter into greased & floured 9 x 13 pan.  Sprinkle chocolate chips & nuts over top. Bake at 325 degrees for 40-45 minutes.

Recipe note: This cake needs no frosting and freezes well.
