Mama's Zucchini Cake

Yesterday, I made my mother's recipe for Zucchini Cake.  I added a thin layer of cream cheese frosting.  Enjoy!

Mama's Zucchini Cake

Preheat oven to 325-350 degree F.

Sift together:

3 cups flour

2 tsp baking powder

1 tsp baking soda

1/2 tsp salt

1 1/2 tsp cinnamon

In another bowl, beat together:

2 cups of granulated sugar

1 1/2 cups vegetable oil

4 eggs

1 tsp vanilla

Gradually add flour mixture into sugar mixture. Gently stir until well combined.

Fold in 3 cups of shredded zucchini.  (I used a food processor to shred this.  You could also grate the zucchini.)

Grease a 9" x 13" baking pan.

Bake at 325-350 degree F oven for 45 min - 1 hour until done. Cool.

Cream Cheese Frosting

Beat together until smooth:

3 oz cream cheese, softened

1/4 cup butter, softened

2 cups confectioners sugar

1 tsp vanilla

Spread on cooled cake.

*I like to refrigerate this cake but you don't need to.
