    This is one good way to get rid of your zucchini! This is the best cake, especially if you like chocolate and Pecans. I did spray my bunt pan and floured it a bit...the cake came out perfect. I'm sending the receipe to my baking friends who has hoodles of zucchini. It would be easy to not stop eating this cake!

    I made this in a stnd mixer and it was easy. The dough balls up when its done. I kept the skins on the zucchini and I added a fudge glaze. I will definately make this again.

    If you will allow this cook who has been baking over a half-century...when your recipe has leavening agents (baking powder and/or baking soda, salt, fill the pan half full or you will have a mess. If the batter is higher than that, use two smaller pans! I baked this cake this morning using a large bundt pan and it came out perfectly! It is a LARGE cake but wonderful! Always use the pan called for in the recipe and this recipe should have said a large bundt pan, as bundts come in all sizes now. I added 1/4 cup of baking cocoa, as the initial batter wasn't chocolate enough for my taste and I did use my KIitchen-Aid to mix in the grated zucchini and nuts, as I am not strong enough to mix such a heavy batter. It made no difference whatsoever!

    I thought this was a very good cake. I made it for the moms at my son's 3rd birthday party and everyone loved it. My son even loved it. I substituted half of the sugar with splenda and half of the oil with applesauce.

    too much sugar, not enough chocolate. could be more moist...i did add more zucchini than the recipe called for, which helped some. I think I'd tweak the recipe some.

    It was easy to make, but if you're looking for rich, moist, and chocolaty, this is not it.

    I was quite surprised at the flavor and texture of this delicious cake. My children and grandchildren loved it, and ate most of it up in one day. I am making it again, but will try to reduce the sugar by 1/2 c. I thought it was a bit sweet. Wonderfully moist.

    This was tasty, but not quite as moist or rich as I would like. The pecans were definitely a great addition to this cake.
