Chocolate Zucchini Cake

This cake reminds me of the many picnics that we went on as a family to the lake. Mom would pack a picnic lunch and we would be off. The gooey chocolate frosting would be all over our faces as we munched into this moist cake.

½ cup of oil
½ c. margarine
1/3/4 c. sugar
2 eggs
½ tsp. Cloves
½ tsp. Salt
1 tsp. Vanilla
½ c. sour milk (or buttermilk
2 ½ c. sifted flour
4 Tbsp. Cocoa
1 tsp. Soda
½ tsp. Cinnamon
2 c. grated zucchini

Topping
½ c. brown sugar
1 c. chocolate chips
½ c. chopped walnuts

Cream oil, margarine, sugar and eggs. Alternate sour milk and other sifted dry ingredients until blended. Add zucchini and pour the mixture into a 13x9 inch pan, top with brown sugar, nuts and chips. Bake at 350 for 35-40 minutes. This is a moist cake that does not need frosting.
