Chocolate plus zucchini are slowly becoming a classic combination among food blogs, don’t you agree? However, I’ve recently tried it for the first time and have to say I love it. I started writing this feeling like this cake needs an excuse to be tasted and loved, extra explanations. But I won’t do that. Because this cake deserves all the praise. Perfect balance of sweetness, with deep dark chocolate flavor enhanced by some coffee.
