- In a large bowl, combine 1 cup unsweetened applesauce and ¾ cup granulated sugar. Mix well.
- Add 2 large eggs, 1 cup milk, and 1 teaspoon vanilla extract. Beat with an electric mixer until light and fluffy.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together 2 cups all-purpose flour, ¾ cup unsweetened cocoa powder, 1 teaspoon baking soda, 1 teaspoon baking powder, and ½ teaspoon salt.
- Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined. Be careful not to overmix.
- Fold in 2 cups grated zucchini.
- Pour batter into the prepared pan and sprinkle evenly with 1 cup chocolate chips.
- Bake for 40-45 minutes, or until a wooden skewer inserted into the center comes out clean.
- Let the cake cool completely in the pan before frosting (optional).
