If you don’t tell, no one will know there is zucchini in this cake, not even your veggie hating kids.

1 box German chocolate cake mix (I used a chocolate fudge cake mix)

2 cups shredded zucchini

1 teaspoon cinnamon

1/2 cup buttermilk

1/4 cup vegetable oil

2 eggs

1/2 cup chopped nuts, I used pecans

1/2 cup mini chocolate chips

1 Heat oven to 350, 325 for dark or nonstick pans. Spray bottom of 9 x 13″ pan with cooking spray.

2 Beat cake mix, zucchini, cinnamon, buttermilk, oil, and eggs on low until moistened, then on medium for 2 minutes. Pour into prepared pan. Sprinkle top with nuts and chocolate chips.

3 Bake 30 – 35 minutes or until toothpick inserted in center comes out clean. Let cool before cutting.
