Chocolate Zuchini Chai Cake....
Aug. 6th, 2010 08:42 amBecause it was late last night, I took some short cuts on the cake.  The recipe said we should grind our own spices and I think she's probably right.  The chai spices really don't come through.  I also baked it in a loaf pan.  It's fine but it crumbles too much when cut to be a terribly useful shape.  Also, the chocolate chips didn't sink like expected and I think it's because it was a lot thicker than it would be in a spring form pan.  Mostly it tastes like a chocolate zucchini bread.  There is a little aftertaste of chai.  I'll get some feedback at the meeting, although usually it's just "yum!"
