βThe measurements in grams are wrong. I followed the recipe and the ratio of humid ingredients vs dry ingredients (before adding the zucchini) wasn't enough. It was harder than any cookie dough I've ever seen. I had to add one egg and oil to be able to mix it tβ β a cook, 4.0β
βThis is a fantastic cake for dessert or afternoon tea. I make it in a square tin because I prefer the shape for serving it like a brownie. I cook it for 35 mins. I use 150-200g of the chocolate bits and Iβm very happy with the results. Delicious every time β β a cook, 5.0β
