I know many of you have your own gardens, and maybe have an abundance of vegetables this time of year. Somehow I am always left with veggies that tend to get thrown out because I run out of things to do with them.
This time I had some leftover zucchini and decided to try a sweet dessert that I have wanted to try for a while, Chocolate Zucchini Bundt Cake. And let me tell you. This cake was so MOIST! So YUMMY! And the perfect balance of sweetness. Feel free to add walnuts, pecans, or chocolate chips. Or perhaps a simple glaze. I used some powdered sugar to dust the top. It was perfect. And for the first time ever my four year-old is eating zucchini. Shhhhhh, our little secret.
Now I am on a mission to incorporate vegetables into more of my desserts. What are some of your favorite ways to use vegetables in sweet treats?
