It's still chocolate and zucchini season, so after scoring a hefty dark green beauty, I stayed in on a Saturday night and made this delicious cake. (Really, I had every opportunity to go out, but I wanted to stay in and bake ;-) Like my Healthy Chocolate Zucchini Cake, it's a variation of my grandma's super-rich traditional recipe, which I've updated to be wheat-free (+ gluten-free) and lower in refined ingredients, sugar and fat. This version is moist, rich and airy with a delicate blend of aromatic ingredients + extra chocolate.

Hi Patty, came to tell you that I´ve posted on Pan y Varios my version of your delicious pumpkin pudding. It was such a hit at home when I baked it that I just had the need of sharing it with my Spanish bloggers.
Now I found this delicious chocolate recipe... next in my list "to do". Thanks a lot.
Have a nice weekend.

My apologizes and thanks for your visit.
Pretty good Spanish ¡¡¡
My best regards.

No problem, it was the perfect opportunity for me to practice my Spanish. Gracias!
Your pecan pumpkin pudding is gorgeous, and I'm sure it tastes better than it looks too. ;) Looking forward to seeing your version of this chocolate zucchini cake...

I've made regular zucchini cake before but never with chocolate. I tried your recipe and it turned out better than my regular zucchini recipe! I really like having the healthy cake with a little more dessert like taste!
