Receta Coconut Chocolate Zucchini Cake
I’ve had chocolate zucchini cake with chocolate frosting, but I think I loved this Coconut Chocolate Zucchini cake even more!
It is a dense and moist cake with a tender crumb. The frosting is yummy, but the toasted coconut takes it over the top!
Everyone in my family loved this cake. The first night I served it on it’s own, and it was quickly devoured. The next day we had it with vanilla ice cream, and that was a perfect addition if you want to be extra naughty.
If you love chocolate and coconut together, you must try this cake! It will be a new staple at our house during zucchini season!
