Chocolate Zucchini Bread

I thought I would add this as well. This is from Shelley's BYUI cookbook.

Pre-heat oven to 350 degrees.

Ingredients:
3 Eggs
1 C vegetable Oil
2 C Brown Sugar
1 t Vanilla
2 Unsweetened Chocolate Squares, melted
3 C Zucchini, grated
4 C Flour
1 t Baking Soda
1 t Cinnamon
1/2 C Nuts, chopped (optional)
1 t Salt
1/4 t Baking Powder

Beat 3 eggs. Add oil and sugar. Beat well and add vanilla, chocolate, and zucchini. Mix together and add the remaining ingredients and then place in a greased and floured (again bottom only) baking pan. (My notes say it will make 4 small loaves or one regular size loaf (8.5" x 4.5" x 2.5"). Bake 45 to 60 minutes.

Cool in pan for 10 minutes. Turn out onto a cooling rack.

Zucchini Bread

Here you go Rachel! I knew I would forget to get this on when I got home, but, hey, at least it's only been a couple of days instead of weeks...or months...or years....

Heat oven to 325 degrees.

Ingredients:
3 Eggs
1 C Sugar
1 C Brown Sugar
1 C Vegetable oil (I use Canola)
2 C Zucchini squash (grated)
2 t Vanilla
1 t Salt
1 t Baking Soda
1/4 t Baking Powder
3 t Cinnamon
3 C Flour

Combine sugars, eggs and oil. Beat until well blended.

Add zucchini and vanilla. Mix until blended.

Mix flour baking soda, BP, salt and cinnamon. Add to mixture.

Again this is the chocolate lover speaking...add 1/4 to 1/3 cup of mini chocolate chips. This tastes good if you pour a little batter in first, add a level of chocolate chips, then add the rest of the batter.

Place in two greased and floured loaf pans (greased and floured on the bottom only).

Bake one hour at 325 degrees.
