Amazing Chocolate Zucchini Bread
NessTheMess
"This is a family recipe that I make all year long! A family favorite! This recipe is AMAZING! I make several loaves and freeze it. It's just as good after it thaws out as it is the day it's baked. I also shred zucchini from my garden and put it in 2-cup portions in the freezer for fresh bread all year round."

Ready In
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
- Beat margarine, sugar, cinnamon, and nutmeg together with an electric mixer in a large bowl until light and fluffy. The mixture should be noticeably lighter in color. Add eggs one at a time, allowing each egg to blend into the mixture before adding the next. Beat vanilla extract into the margarine mixture with the last egg.
- Mix flour, cocoa powder, baking powder, baking soda, and salt in a bowl. Pour the flour mixture into the margarine mixture alternately with the milk, mixing until just incorporated. Fold zucchini through the batter, mixing just enough to evenly combine. Pour batter into 2 loaf pans.
- Bake in the preheated oven until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean, 40 to 45 minutes. Cool in the pans for 10 minutes before removing to cool completely on a wire rack.

This is okay, but a little bland.

Love it!! Used about 3 1/2 cups zucchini and it made it super moist. Not as sweet as the recipe I usually make but it's just as good and I didn't need chocolate chips.

This is AMAZING! Love that the recipe makes two loaves. One did not last any time at all in our house. I took the second to some new neighbors who just moved in and they raved about it also. ...
