Sinful Chocolate Zucchini Cake

Since our zucchini is starting to ripen and I need to feel like I've "used" some of our garden before we move, I decided to find a yummy recipe to use it in. My cake didn't turn out looking like the above picture but it really was yummy and you honestly cannot taste any hint of zucchini whatsoever.
