Chocolate Zucchini Cake

1/2 c oil
1 1/2 c sugar
2 eggs
1/2 c sour milk or buttermilk
1 teaspoon vanilla
2 1/2 c flour
1/4 c cocoa
1 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
1/4 teaspoon ground cloves
2 c shredded zucchini
1/2 c chopped nuts
1/2 c semi sweet chocolate chips

Mix oil and sugar. Add eggs, milk and vanilla. Mix well.
Combine flour, cocoa, baking soda, baking powder, salt, cinnamon and cloves. Gradually add to oil and sugar mixture. Stir in zucchini. Spread into oiled 12x9x2 pan. Sprinkle with nuts and choc chips. Bake at 350 for 35-40 min. Makes 12-18 servings. When totally cool, dust with powdered sugar. I've mixed nuts and chips into batter rather than on top and it's been great, as well.
