FULL MOON CHOCOLATE ZUCCHINI CAKE



Full Moon Chocolate Zucchini Cake image

The zucchini makes the cake super moist but doesn't affect the overall chocolaty goodness. Cocoa is a rich source of antioxidants, which can help heal your skin and are said to reduce stress (yes please!).

Yield Makes 1 (10-inch) single-layer cake

Number Of Ingredients 17

3 1/2 oz. white sugar
2 1/4 oz. brown sugar
3 1/2 oz. butter
2 tablespoons vegetable oil
1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
2 eggs
7 oz. flour
1/2 oz. moon-charged unsweetened cocoa powder
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon
3 tablespoons buttermilk (or mix 1/4 teaspoon lemon juice or vinegar with milk and leave to stand for 5 minutes before using)
5 oz. shredded zucchini
3 oz. (or more to taste) plain chocolate chips
confectioners' sugar (for dusting)
Special Equipment
10 in. round cake tin (greased)
Moon-phase stencil

Steps:

  • Preheat your oven to 325°F.
  • In large bowl, combine the white and brown sugars, butter, oil, vanilla, and eggs. Beat well. Next, add the flour, cocoa, baking soda, cinnamon, and buttermilk, blending well with an electric mixer.
  • Now add the shredded zucchini and chocolate chips, mixing well by hand. Spread the mixture in the greased pan, and bake in the preheated oven for 30-40 minutes or until a toothpick comes out clean when poked into the mixture. Cool completely.
  • To make the stencil, trace shapes reflecting the phases of the moon onto a parchment round that is the same circumference as your cake (see photo for shape references) and carefully cut these out with scissors or a craft knife. Lay on top of the cooled cake and sprinkle confectioners' sugar on top.

  • Preheat oven to 350°F (177°C). Grease two 9×2 inch cake pans. (Make sure they’re at least 2 inches high, deep dish style.) Set aside.
  • Whisk the flour, cocoa powder, baking soda, baking powder, espresso powder (if using), and salt together in a large bowl. In another large bowl using a handheld or stand mixer fitted with a paddle or whisk attachment, beat the oil, granulated sugar, brown sugar, eggs, sour cream, vanilla, and zucchini together until combined. Pour into dry ingredients and beat on medium speed until completely combined. Beat in the chocolate chips. Batter will be slightly thick.
  • Pour batter evenly into cake pans. Bake for around 25-32 minutes or until the cakes are baked through. To test for doneness, insert a toothpick into the center of the cake. If it comes out clean, it is done. Allow cakes to cool completely in the pans set on a wire rack. The cakes must be completely cool before frosting and assembling.
  • First, using a large serrated knife, slice a thin layer off the tops of the cakes to create a flat surface. Discard (or crumble over ice cream!). Place 1 cake layer on your cake stand or serving plate. Evenly cover the top with frosting. Top with 2nd layer and spread the remaining frosting all over the top and sides. Pipe any leftover frosting on top. (I used Ateco #30 tip.) Decorate with chocolate sprinkles or mini chocolate chips if desired. Slice and serve.
