Chocolate Zucchini Cake

I was flicking through a new recipe book my cousin gave me a few years ago and I saw this recipe for chocolate zucchini cake. My dad said that he would taste anything, so I decided to give this a go. It is actually quite nice. You can't taste the zucchini, and the whole cake tastes a little like jaffa. The zucchini makes the cake nice and moist.
- 1/2 teaspoon bicarbonate of soda             
- 1 1/4 cups flour
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 teaspoon cinnamon
- 1/4 cup cocoa
- 1/4 cup butter
- 1/4 cup oil
- 3/4 cup sugar
- rind of one orange
- 1/2 teaspoon vanilla essence
- 1 egg
- 1 cup grated zucchini
- 1/4 cup milk


1. Preheat oven to 180 degrees celcius. Sift soda, flour, salt, cinnamon and cocoa and set aside.


2. Place butter, oil, sugar, rind and vanilla together and mix well.


3. Add egg, then zucchini until combined.


4. Add dry ingredients and milk. Pour into a greased cake tin and cook for 30 minutes until cooked.
