Ingredients
  • Zucchini Brownies
  • 2 cups zucchini (I use one regular sized zucchini)
  • ½ cup oil
  • 2 tsp. vanilla
  • 1½ cups sugar
  • 2 cups flour
  • 1 tsp. salt
  • 1½ tsp baking soda
  • ½ cup cocoa
  • Chocolate Frosting
  • 6 Tbsp. cocoa
  • 2 Tbsp butter
  • 2 Tbsp. margarine or shortening
  • ¼ cup milk
  • 2 cups powdered sugar
  • dash of salt
  • ½ tsp. vanilla
Instructions
  1. Puree zucchini, oil, and vanilla in blender.
  2. Combine dry ingredients in a bowl. I don’t use chopped nuts, but if you like them in your brownies, then add ½ cup to 1 cup.
  3. Mix zucchini mixture into dry ingredients with a spatula until well blended. Do not beat!
  4. Pour into a greased 9x13 pan and bake at 350 for 25-30 minutes. The brownies will be cake-like, so test them like you would a cake.
  5. Allow brownies to cool for about 20 minutes or so before frosting.
  6. For frosting: Soften butter and margarine in microwave until it is very soft. Combine all ingredients with a mixer until smooth. Frost brownies and enjoy!
