chocolate cake for breakfast! OR the best chocolate zucchini bread

Growing up, my siblings and I loved listening to Bill Cosby's standup routines on tape. 
One of our favorite bits he did was the "dad lets us eat chocolate cake for breakfast".  He tells how his kids begged for chocolate cake for breakfast.  As he thought through the ingredient list: 
Milk!  Health food!
Flour!  Health food!
Eggs!  Healthy!
So he sliced off a piece for each of his kids and watched their happy faces as they ate chocolate cake for breakfast.  "Dad is great....gives us the chocolate cake" the kids sang. 

This is that cake. 
I like to call it "bread" so we can eat it just about anytime!
It's moist, chocolatey and super yummage. 
And healthy!  That's right. 
Just look at the ingredient list: 
Flour!  Healthy!
Eggs!  Health food!
Zucchini!  Vegetable!

We eat this warm for breakfast and also for dessert with a dollop of whipped cream.

Chocolate Zucchini Bread {makes 2 loaves}
Recipe by Our Best Bites

2 C flour
2 t cinnamon
1/2 t salt
1 1/2 t baking soda
6 T unsweetened cocoa powder
1/2 C canola oil
1 C sugar
1/4 C brown sugar
3 eggs
2 t vanilla
1/2 C sour cream
3 C grated zucchini
3/4 C mini chocolate chips
optional: zest from one orange
Topping:
2 T brown sugar
2 T white sugar
1/2 t cinnamon
Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Butter and flour 2 loaf pans and set aside. Mix topping ingredients in a small bowl and set aside.
Place flour, cinnamon, baking soda, salt, and cocoa powder in a small bowl and whisk to combine. Set aside.With a stand or hand mixer beat oil, white sugar, brown sugar, and eggs until combined and slightly fluffy, 1-2 minutes.
Add vanilla and sour cream and mix until combined.
Gently stir in the grated zucchini (and zest if you’re using).Take a spoonful of the flour mixture and stir in with the chocolate chips (that will help keep them evenly distributed.)Add the remaining flour mixture to the batter and stir just until combined. Add chocolate chips and stir to combine.
Divide the batter between the two pans. and sprinkle topping over each. Place pans on a cookie sheet for easy moving.  Bake in your preheated 350 degree oven for 50-60 minutes. I set my timer for 45 minutes and then keep an eye on it for the remainder. Ya never know how different ovens handle things.
When it’s done a toothpick or skewer should come out without goopy batter on it and the top will be gorgeous and cracked with sugar.  Let it cool on a rack for 5-10 minutes and then remove from pans.
