Ingredients
- 1 1/4 cups all-purpose flour*

- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1 cup zucchini, grated and well-packed

- Sift flour, cocoa, baking powder, and baking soda together. Set aside.
- In a bowl large enough to hold all remaining ingredients whisk oil and sugar until well blended.
- Whisk in eggs and salt. Add zucchini and once combined add dry ingredients followed by chocolate chips.
- Scrape batter into prepared pan. Place in the oven for about 45-50 minutes or until center of cake bounces back when lightly pressed with a finger.
- Once cooled, cover with ganache. Slice and serve.
