Zucchini Toffee Cake
Zucchini is plentiful in the garden right now, we have been having some great squash this season. I love to develop recipes that use fresh fruit and vegetables from the garden to the table. This recipe is packed with flavor from fresh zucchini, banana's and kicked up with some chocolate and toffee. A very moist and delicious cake that can be served for any occasion. I sent it to work with my husband the other day and he said it was gone in less than 5 minutes, so be sure and get your piece first!

ReplyDeleteThis Zucchini Toffee Cake reminds me of one my mom and Granny always made around the holidays. They always put theirs in a round, metal coffee can when they baked it and I would just sit and watch the oven, fascinated over this zucchini cake in a coffee can.
ReplyDeleteYours sounds wonderful with the addition of toffee!
