The Busy Butler Family: Giveaways and other stuff...go here

I've decided that i want this blog more focused on our family and stuff we do. I've created another fun blog where I can keep track of the fun giveaways and other great stuff I discover while I'm blog-hopping during my internet time. So visit Butler Blog Buzz to see some cute stuff!

Chocolate Zucchini Cake with Orange Cream Cheese Icing

We have zucchini coming out of our ears here at the ranch. I've frozen tons of shredded & sliced zucchini to use all winter, and we're running out of freezer space (we have to leave some space for that pesky Blackie the lamb!) So I've been trying to find new, tasty ways to eat the green veggie. Clayton is the only family member, I think, who doesn't mind having it at every meal as a side dish with salt, pepper & butter. I came across this tasty cake recipe and it is a hit!

Orange Cream Cheese Icing

1 8 oz. package Cream Cheese
6 Tablespoons Butter
2 Tablespoons Orange Juice
1 Tablespoon Vanilla
2 1/2 cups Powdered Sugar
2 teaspoons orange zest

Beat cream cheese & butter until fluffy. Add orange juice & vanilla. Gradually add powdered sugar & mix well until fluffy. Fold in orange zest. After icing, garnish top of cake with a sprinkle of cocoa powder and chocolate shavings.
