Chocolate Zucchini Loaf

with Butter Olive Oil
We could call this bread, but it's way too gooey! We've decided on loaf because it may taste like a cake, but you can't put vegetable in cake, right?

Ingredients:

• 2 1/2 cups flour
• 1/2 cup cocoa powder
• 2 tsp baking powder
• 1 1/2 tsp baking soda
• 3/4 tsp salt
• 1/2 cup Butter Olive Oil
• 1 1/2 cups sugar
• 2 eggs
• 2 tsp vanilla
• 2 cups zucchini, grated (approximately 2 small)
• 1/2 cup milk
• 1 cup dark chocolate chips (and/or chopped nuts)

Directions:

Preheat oven to 350°F. Grease two loaf pans.

Place sifter basket over medium bowl and place all dry ingredients inside. Sift to combine.

In separate large bowl, beat together oil & sugar. Add eggs, one at a time, beating until incorporated. Stir in vanilla, followed by zucchini. Put 1/2 dry ingredients into wet and stir to combine. Pour in 1/2 cup milk, mix. Stir in last 1/2 flour mixture, followed by remaining milk, then chocolate chips or any other additions.

Divide mixture into loaf pans and bake 50 minutes - 1 hour until inserted toothpick comes out clean.

Freeze 'extras' for any unforseen chocolate emergencies.
