Law of the Harvest

They do the work, we get the benefits, right?  The people we are renting from have a fantastic garden. We have more honeydew and cantaloupe than we can handle!
Also, my mom ended up with a 15 lb zucchini so I had to take advantage and whip up some tried and true zucchini cake...
Preheat oven to 350, then mix all together:
1/2 c butter       1 t baking powder
1/2 c oil          2 cups finely grated zucchini
1 3/4 c sugar      2 1/2 c flour
2 eggs             5 T cocoa
1 T vanilla        1/2 t cinnamon
1/2 c buttermilk   1 t salt
1 t baking soda
 
sprinkle topping: 3/4 c milk chocolate chips, 3/4 c brown sugar, 3/4 c finely chopped pecans (optional).
 
Pour into greased, not floured, 9x13
bake @ 350 for 30-40 min
