4 ounces unsweetened baking chocolate

1/2 cup butter
2 cups sugar
3 whole eggs, beaten
1 tablespoon vanilla extract
2 cups all-purpose flour

2 teaspoons baking soda
2 teaspoons baking powder
1 teaspoon kosher salt

3 cups zucchini or 3 cups other summer squash, grated

Sift or stir together the dry ingredients and stir them into the batter with the buttermilk. Mix the squash and nuts into the batter.

  • Cool the cake completely before frosting with whipped cream or your favorite frosting. Try this frosting:.
  • 3/4 cup butter at room temp., 8 oz. cream cheese at room temp., 4 plus cups confectioner's sugar, and 1 teaspoon vanilla. Cream butter and cheese together until the mixture is light and fluffy. Add vanilla. Slowly add the confectioner's sugar until well blended, using more sugar if necessary to get a spreading consistency. Best stored in fridge.
