(5 ratings)
This cake recipe came from a good friend, Mary Stooksbury. She is no longer here on this earth, but was one of our dear church members. It was the first time I ever had zucchini baked into a sweet dish, and this is delicious! The recipe is contained in our first church cookbook, called Bread From House To House, printed in 1994.

6NOTE 6/23/2014: I have recently started increasing the zucchini to 3 cups instead of two. I did that just to use up all of the 2 squash I had. They were grated very finely, and the cake turned out wonderfully.
