Instructions: Preheat oven to 325 degrees. Grease a 9x13 inch pan.

In a bowl, cream butter and eggs. Add oil, vanilla and sugar. Blend well. Sift together the cocoa, flour, baking soda, baking powder, cloves, and cinnamon. Add to the butter mixture alternately with the milk. Add zucchini and chocolate chips. Bake 40 to 50 minutes.

There is no need to frost this cake, but if you wish, sprinkle or sifted powdered sugar on top of the cooled cake.

About the best non-standard use for zucchini is this cake which Catlyns, a wonderful gourmet-to-go deli makes.
