RECIPE BACKSTORY
Another good eats recipe that I got from another knottie on the DFW Knot board. This is a great spin on what to do with zucchini, besides the cake doesn't even taste like zucchini so it's easy to stomach. Enjoy!!
CHEF'S NOTES:
I added a cup or so of chopped walnuts to the wet mix, before placing into prepared Bundt pan.
I also, finely chopped up about a handful of walnuts & topped the final product in cake stand for a little deco.
Cake should last a week, but no longer than that other wise will get moldy.
