Grease and flour a 9×13 pan and preheat oven to 325 F. In a large bowl, mix together all cake ingredients until combined. Pour into the pan. Bake for 40-45 minutes at 325 F.

So happy I found this on line, the recipe in the magazine did not say how much zucchini was in the recipe. Thank you.
When this recipe went to print in the magazine the zucchini was left out. Good thing you had it online. Can’t wait to make and try it! Thanks for sharing Cindy Thomes recipe.
