Directions
Zucchini Chocolate Cake is a classic! We will do our own reading, of course, gluten-free and dairy-free, but more interestingly, we will even replace half of the sugar with apricots. It will add flavor to our cake, making it more moist and tender. Nutritionally, it will boost the cake with minerals and fiber.
I have to warn you right away that the cake is not very sweet, but it is very chocolatey!
Bon Appétit!
