I just made an almost identical recipe that didn't include cocoa or chocolate chips which is funny because I usually put chocolate chips in any cookie or cake recipe. The recipe I used had raisins instead but they were so similar I feel confident in reviewing this recipe.<br/>It was so easy pureeing the green tomatoes in my blender after cutting them into about eighths then adding the sugar and margarine in the blender, mixing the dry ingredients and then mixing the wet into the dry. A really easy and delicious moist cake, next time I'll add the chocolate chips. I hope others give this recipe a try.

I wasn't sure about the tomato-cocoa combo, but I had so many green tomatoes, I gave several recipes a try. This was by far our favorite, everybody who tried it loved it. Also tasty with an added cup of coconut, and if you are looking for a luxury sweet, add some vanilla or cream cheese icing. Delicious, thanks for posting!
