BEST dairy-free Chocolate Cake EVER

Chocolate Zucchini Bread

My moist Chocolate Zucchini Bread is the BEST dairy-free Chocolate Cake EVER, and a chocolate lovers dream!  Not only is this cake ‘healthy’ – I mean it has zucchini in it, it is so moist and chocolaty!  This is a great way to sneak in extra veggies for this kiddos and they won’t even know.  I love how moist the zucchini makes this cake and best of all you can’t even taste the zucchini at all!  The addition of semisweet chocolate chips, also really adds that extra chocolate goodness to this cake.  This cake is perfect as a snack or for dessert with a scoop of Vanilla Ice Cream.
