Steps:
- Preheat oven to 325 degrees (or temperature recommended on cake mix box). Lightly grease two 8 or 9 inch round non-stick cake pans. Mix together cake mix, cocoa powder, eggs, oil, and water using electric mixer. Note: if mix looks too dry, add more applesauce or if mix looks too wet, hold back some water. Bake for recommended baking time on cake box. Do not overbake. Remove from oven and cool completely.
- Frosting: Over medium heat, combine pudding mix, skim milk, and cocoa powder. Bring to boil for 2 minutes, constantly stirring with spatula. Cool pudding to room temperature.
- Frost cake by placing first cake round on platter. Cut top of cake flat and remove any excess cake. Apply half of the frosting to the cake. Add second cake round to the spread frosting. Push down slightly so the pudding is visible between the layers. Add remaining frosting to top of cake, keeping it 1/2 inch away from edge of cake all the way around. Chill in refrigerator overnight. Note: the moisture from the frosting pudding mix will soak into the cakes and create a very moist, almost pudding-like consistency.
- This recipe was designed for Mother's Day for my wife who loves chocolate and can now eat all the chocolate cake she wants! By the way, this tastes amazing.
Tips:
- Use a box grater to shred the zucchini. This will help to ensure that the zucchini is evenly distributed throughout the cake and that it cooks evenly.
- Squeeze out any excess moisture from the zucchini before adding it to the batter. This will help to prevent the cake from becoming too moist.
- Be sure to mix the batter until it is just combined. Overmixing can result in a tough cake.
- Bake the cake at 350 degrees Fahrenheit for about 45 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
- Let the cake cool completely before frosting it. This will help to prevent the frosting from melting.

This chocolate cinnamon zucchini cake is a delicious and healthy way to enjoy your favorite dessert. It is made with whole wheat flour, zucchini, and applesauce, which makes it a good source of fiber and nutrients.
