I don't know if something was wrong with my oven, but the cake had to cook for about 55 min. before it was done. The center jiggled at 35 minutes. I was disappointed because it wasn't as moist as others had experienced. I put some pieces in plastic ziplock baggies in the refrigerator and it helped with the moisture content, but I'm still not making this again.

I have made this cake several times now. I add a few more choc chips to the top and change up the spices every once in awhile! Everyone LOVES IT! I have frozen lots of zucchini to keep making it all winter! Made another today in fact!

This chocolate cake was very moist and tasted so good. Can't go wrong with a chocolate cake that includes some hidden veggies. BRAVO GRACE ENGLE! Included this recipe in my "All Zucchini Dinner" inspired by Pam-3BoysMama. Served with "Baked Vegetables," "Savory Cheddar Zucchini Muffins," "Zucchini Stuffed Chicken," and "Zucchini-Chocolate Chip Muffins" for breakfast the next day.

Very moist and tasty. My co-worker made it into zucchini bread and it was delicious. I made it into muffins and it was so yummy, not too oily. I would like to try it with unsweetened applesauce to lower fat content and use egg white. Otherwise a fabulous recipe.

This will be my go-to zucchini cake recipe. I did cut back the oil to 1/4 cup and the cake was delicious and moist. I'd recommend that change as I think it would've been too oily with 1/2 cup. The only other change I made was to sprinkle chopped walnuts over the top with the chocolate chips. It was such a hit my FIL came to "visit" and had 2 more pieces. Thanks for a keeper!

I think this cake was delicious. Second time I've made it. Would like to try with cloves too next time. My mom said it was the moistest cake she ever tasted and I would agree. I had extra zucchini, so I used it and if you don't want to waste the extra zucchini, make sure you cook long enough.

This is a great recipe. Love it in the summer when I need to use up the zucchini. Great to share at work or to take over to my son's house, where it's always appreciated.

Good recipe though far to oily. I followed recipe as directed except forgot to add salt (really no need) and left out the nuts due to allergies. In the future we will definately use this recipe, though will omit the oil or butter, either one, and replace with milk. The hint of cinnamon was wonderful, and it was very moist and chewy. Next time I will also use one less egg, to make it more caky vs being so chewy.
