WHERE TO BUY BAKING STRIPS:
HOW TO USE BAKING STRIPS:
Simply soak the strips in water for 15 minutes, remove excess water, wrap around your pans and bake according to a recipe. You may need to increase baking time when using the strips.
BAKING STRIPS DIY:
You will need paper towels and foil. Measure out how much paper you need to wrap around the pan. Wet the towels, then wring them out from excess water. Measure out foil that is about 2 inches longer than the paper length and width. Place the paper towel folded to a height of about two inches on the foil. Fold the foil around the towel, then attach to the side of the pan and pinch the edges together.

The BEST Chocolate Zucchini Cake Recipe
This chocolate zucchine cake is the MOST amazing chocolate cake you could imagine! You would NEVER guess that this insanely moist chocolate cake has zucchini in it! The hidden vegetable really just adds a lot of moisture to the cake without altering the super chocolatey flavor. I can’t even tell you how good the whipped chocolate buttercream is. You just have to make this cake. Or you can make regular zucchini bread, up to you I guess. ????
Full Recipe:
The cake is super-fudgy, full of chocolate chipps and that buttercream is just magical, I think it has JUST the right proportion of cocoa powder, butter, salt and sugar. Would this be one of your favorite zucchini recipes?
Chocolate cake decorating is so fun when you have a few different chocolate textures to play with. I loved how the ganache, shards, cocoa powder and butter cream come together to make this cake look as mouth watering as it tastes!

FOR THE CAKE
- 1/2 cup butter (1 stick), room temperature
- 1/2 cup vegetable oil
- 1 3/4 cup sugar
- 2 eggs
- 1 teaspoon vanilla
- 1/2 cup buttermilk or sour milk (2 teaspoons vinegar with 1/2 cup milk)
- 2 1/2 cups flour
- 4 tablespoons cocoa
- 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 3/4 teaspoon cinnamon
- 3/4 teaspoon ground cloves
- grated zucchini (seeds removed)
- 1/2 cup chocolate chips (I prefer the mini variety)
FOR THE GANACHE
- 4 ounces semi-sweet chocolate
- 1/2 cup heavy cream
FOR THE CAKE
Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
Prepare zucchini by cutting off ends, scooping out seeds, and grating. Set aside. I like to leave the skin on but it can also be peeled.
Cream together butter, oil and sugar until light and fluffy, 4 minutes.
Add eggs, one at a time and vanilla, and mix until incorporated.
In a separate bowl sift together the flour, cocoa, baking powder, baking soda, salt, cinnamon, and cloves.
Alternately add the dry ingredients with the milk in three additions, beginning and ending with the dry.
Stir in zucchini and chocolate chips.
Spray pans with nonstick baking spray and fill with batter. Bake until a toothpick inserted in middle comes out clean, about 20 minutes. I used miniature Bundt pans, which makes approximately 18 cakes. You can also make one large Bundt cake. Increase baking time to 45-60 minutes.
Remove from oven and cool in the pan for 5 minutes then turn out onto cooling rack.
FOR THE GANACHE
Prepare ganache by heating cream until steaming.
Pour over the chopped chocolate and stir until smooth and melted.
Drizzle ganache on slightly cooled cakes.
