2-1/2 cups all-purpose flour
2 cups sugar
1-1/2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
1 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1 cup vegetable oil
4 eggs
2 cups shredded zucchini
1/2 cup chopped walnuts, optional
Frosting: (or just use Betty Crocker's Cream Cheese Frosting)
1 package (3 ounces) cream cheese, softened
14 cup butter or margarine, softened
1 tablespoon milk
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
2 cups confectioners' sugar
In a mixing bowl, combine flour, sugar, cinnamon, salt, baking powder, and baking soda. Combine oil and eggs; add to dry ingredients and mix well. Add zucchini; stir until thoroughly combined. Fold in walnuts if desired. Pour into a greased 13 x 9 inch baking pan. Bake at 350 degrees for 35 – 40 minutes or until a toothpick inserted near the center comes out clean. Cool. For frosting, in a small mixing bowl, beat cream cheese, butter, milk, and vanilla until smooth. Add confectioners' sugar and mix well. Frost cake. Sprinkle with nuts if desired.
