Ingredients
  

1 medium zucchini (approximately 1 cup, grated)

1 cup all-purpose flour

1/2 cup unsweetened cocoa powder

1 cup granulated sugar

1/2 cup brown sugar, lightly packed

1 teaspoon baking soda

1/2 teaspoon baking powder

1/4 teaspoon salt

1/2 cup vegetable oil

2 large eggs

1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract

1/2 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips (optional)

1/2 cup chopped nuts, such as walnuts or pecans (optional)

5-6 large tortilla wraps

Instructions
 

Preheat Oven: Begin by preheating your oven to 350°F (175°C). Prepare a 9x9-inch baking dish by greasing it with butter or non-stick spray.

    Grate the Zucchini: Rinse the zucchini under cool water, remove both ends, and use a box grater to shred it. After grating, wrap the zucchini in a clean kitchen towel or several layers of paper towels and gently squeeze to remove excess moisture.

      Mix Dry Ingredients: In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, cocoa powder, granulated sugar, brown sugar, baking soda, baking powder, and salt until they are well combined and free of lumps.

        Combine Wet Ingredients: In a separate medium bowl, whisk together the vegetable oil, eggs, and vanilla extract until the mixture is smooth and homogeneous. Fold in the grated zucchini until evenly distributed.

          Combine Mixtures: Gradually pour the wet mixture into the bowl with the dry ingredients. Using a spatula, gently fold the ingredients together until just combined, being careful not to overmix. If desired, fold in the chocolate chips and chopped nuts until evenly incorporated.

            Bake: Transfer the batter into the greased baking dish, spreading it out evenly with the spatula. Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean without wet batter.

              Cool: Once baked, remove the dish from the oven and allow it to cool completely in the pan on a wire rack.

                Prepare Tortilla Wraps: After the cake has cooled, cut it into small squares or rectangles that fit comfortably within the tortilla wraps.

                  Assemble Wraps: Place a square of the cake onto a tortilla wrap. For an extra indulgence, you can add a dollop of whipped cream or frosting on top before carefully rolling the tortilla around the cake piece.

                    Serve: Cut the assembled wraps in half for easier handling. Serve them on a plate, optionally dusted with powdered sugar or drizzled with chocolate sauce for an extra touch of sweetness.
