It always amazes me that you can't tell it's zucchini in a cake. It's a good way to get kids to eat a vegetable (me, too.) Your mom must have been a good baker, Ilene.

She was a good baker and cook she had a lot of good recipes I coupled alot of them before she died and my other sisters got the other recipes and she had a box of recipes and when we all were looking at them mom stared to tell them about the box of recipes and i looked at her and shock my head no and she did'nt tell the rest then and i took them to the car and she died about a month after that. She did
have a lot of good recipes. I keeep finding more of her recipes for zucchini. She had 7 kids.

Ilene - that's good that you have her recipes written down. My grandmother never wrote down any of her recipes and none of us can remember the "secret ingredients" to some of her dishes. We can get it close, but not like hers!

By chance did she have a good carrot cake recipe? The old-sashioned kind that has lots of spice and chunky texture? I lost mine to a computer crash last year.

Renne,
I will have to wait until tomarrow when we get back unto town and look.
I know she had some carrot recipes.
Ilene

Thanks. My wedding cake was carrot cake, so I have a soft spot for a good one!

I have always heard about chocolate zucchini cake, but never had a recipe. Heard it was really good! This one is going in the file to try.
