Step-by-step method

At a glance

This rich, chocolatey zucchini cake is perfect for using up garden zucchini, and it comes together with simple steps — you'll whisk together eggs and sugar, fold in grated zucchini, mix in the dry ingredients with yogurt and coffee, then add chocolate before baking. The main thing to watch out for is that chocolate tends to sink to the bottom, so consider sprinkling it on top of the batter rather than mixing it in if you want it distributed throughout.

About this recipe

I love simple, sweet zucchini cakes. You just pour the batter into a baking tray and bake it — quick, easy and delicious. When zucchini are growing like crazy in the garden, this is the perfect dessert to use them up. This time, for a change, I wanted something really extra good and extra chocolatey. So I tried chocolate zucchini brownies — or really more of a chocolate cake.
