A great way to use up some of that zucchini! It is basically a spice cake with zucchini hidden in it. The icing is wonderful and the cupcakes are very moist. Kids & adults alike love them.

I'm not a huge fan of zucchini, but I really enjoyed these cupcakes. They're not too sweet and the zucchini flavor is subtle.
