Peanut Butter Chocolate Chip Zucchini Cake

This one was definitely a winner and will go in the yearly zucchini rotation. I’m going to give it a try with Nutella instead of peanut butter for my daughter so I’ll let you know how that goes.

1/3 cup creamy peanut butter

1/4 cup butter, softened

1 cup packed brown sugar

1 1/2 cups flour

1/2 teaspoon salt

1/2 teaspoon baking soda

1 egg

1 teaspoon vanilla

1/4 cup buttermilk

1 cup shredded zucchini

1/4 teaspoon cinnamon

1/2 cup chocolate chips

1 Heat oven to 350.

2 Cream together peanut butter, butter, and brown sugar until blended. Beat in 1 1/4 cups of the flour, salt, and baking soda until mixture is sandy. Remove 1/2 cup for topping.

3 Beat in remaining flour, egg, vanilla, and buttermilk then stir in zucchini. Spread into greased 9″ round or square pan. Stir cinnamon into reserved topping and sprinkle over batter then top with chocolate chips.

4 Bake until toothpick inserted in center comes out with moist crumbs, about 20 – 25 minutes.
