How to Make My Mom Asked For The Recipe Chocolate Zucchini Loaf

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour two 9x5 inch loaf pans.
  2. In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, salt, cinnamon, nutmeg, and cocoa powder. Set aside.
  3. In a separate bowl, cream together the softened margarine and sugar until light and fluffy.
  4. Beat in the eggs one at a time, mixing well after each addition. Stir in the vanilla extract.
  5. Gradually add the dry ingredients and milk to the wet ingredients, alternating between the two and beginning and ending with the dry ingredients. Mix until just combined. Do not overmix.
  6. Stir in the shredded zucchini, nuts, and coconut.
  7. Divide the batter evenly between the prepared loaf pans.
  8. Bake for 60-75 minutes, or until a wooden skewer inserted into the center comes out clean.
  9. Let the loaves cool in the pans for 10 minutes before inverting them onto a wire rack to cool completely.
