Low Carb German Chocolate Cake

Low Carb German Chocolate Cake. I don’t know too many people who might not like a good low carb german chocolate cake and I guess if you don’t like coconut then this recipe is not for you.  This is not the sweet, sweet stuff from a box and a can but it sure is good and relatively easy to make.

2. If you do not have a fine grater for the zucchini you can chop it a bit after grating.
