This is an easy recipe for a delicious, moist and rich cake. The glaze makes it truly delectable.<BR/><BR/>After grating the zucchini, I squeezed out the considerable liquid between paper towels (literally wringing it over the sink.) I weighed the shredded zucchini and got exactly 8 ounces from two 8-inch squashes. <BR/><BR/>I used chopped pecans in place of walnuts; the flavor blended really nicely with the cinnamon and zucchini. The cake rose beautifully in the oven and was tested and done after exactly one hour. <BR/><BR/>Am I the only one who didn't know about the hot cream and chocolate chips trick? Where have I been? The warmed cream and chocolate chips blended with a whisk became the most glossy, creamy and easy to work with glaze EVER. It poured over the top and cascaded in a thick sheet down the sides. After an hour in the fridge, it set up beautifully and nearly as substantially as buttercream frosting. <BR/><BR/>Thanks so much for this recipe... I will be making it again!indiejenhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/13827753251395736159noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-22650379.post-82069469656937609282008-08-18T09:59:00.000-04:002008-08-18T09:59:00.000-04:00Mmmmm, I've seen other recipes that call for zucchini in sweet cakes but have never tried one.
