Chocolate-Zucchini Cake

• Unsalted butter, for the pan
• 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour, plus more for the pan
• 1/2 cup plus 1/3 cup semisweet chocolate chips
• 1/4 cup unsweetened cocoa powder (not Dutch process)
• 1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
• 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
• 1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg or allspice
• 1 1/4 cups sugar
• 1/2 cup plus 1 teaspoon extra-virgin olive oil
• 2 large eggs
• 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
• 1 medium zucchini, grated and squeezed dry
• 1 teaspoon honey

1. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Butter the bottom and sides of a 9-inch-square cake pan.
2. Dust the pan with flour, tapping out the excess.
3. Toss 1/2 cup chocolate chips with 1 tablespoon flour in a small bowl.
4. Whisk the remaining flour, the cocoa powder, salt, baking soda and nutmeg in a medium bowl; set aside.
5. Beat the sugar, 1/2 cup olive oil, the eggs and vanilla in a large bowl with a mixer on medium speed until smooth and pale, about 3 minutes.
6. Add the flour-cocoa mixture; beat on low speed until combined, about 2 minutes (the batter will be thick).
7. Add the zucchini and beat until combined, about 2 more minutes.
8. Fold in the flour-coated chocolate chips with a wooden spoon.
9. Transfer the batter to the prepared pan and bake until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean, 30 to 35 minutes.
10. Transfer to a rack and let cool completely.
11. Make the glaze: Combine the remaining 1/3 cup chocolate chips, 1 teaspoon olive oil and the honey in a microwave-safe bowl.
12. Microwave on medium-high power in 30-second intervals, stirring, until the chocolate is melted.
13. Spread over the cake, then cut into pieces.
