Chocolate Zucchini Bread

I just couldn't stop at "regular" zucchini bread.  I wanted to try a chocolate zucchini bread recipe.  At first I wasn't quite sure what I would think about it.  I'm not a real big, add veggies or fruit to my desserts kind of person.  But I figured since we had about a million zucchinis, why not.

I was so happy I did.  This recipe is amazing!  It's moist and chocolaty and absolutely delicious!

Chocolate Zucchini Bread

Source: Six Sisters' Stuff

* 1 1/2 cups sugar

* 1 cup canola oil (or 1 cup unsweetened applesauce)

* 3 eggs

* 3 tsp. vanilla

* 2 1/2 cups flour

* 1/2 cup baking cocoa

* 1 tsp. salt

* 1 tsp. baking soda

* 1/4 tsp. baking powder

* 1 1/2 tsp. ground cinnamon

* 2 cups shredded zucchini

* 1 cup chocolate chips

Mix together the sugar, oil, eggs and vanilla.  Add the other ingredients and mix until well blended.

Pour into two medium, greased loaf pans.  Awhile ago I found these great muffin pan liners.  Don't you love them?  They add so much to a loaf of bread!

No greasing necessary!

Bake in a 350 degree oven for 50 minutes.

Easy, right?  I made a couple of loaves with white chocolate chips in them too and they were wonderful!  And I liked how the white chips looked in all the chocolaty goodness =o)

Enjoy!
