Zucchini Brownies
Zucchini Brownies are super fudgy, decadent, and chocolatey. Finely shredded zucchini keeps them incredibly moist, while chocolate chips add extra richness in every bite. SO dang good that they disappear from the baking sheet in seconds.
Servings: 12 large brownies
large brownies
Ingredients
- 1½ cups granulated sugar
- ½ cup neutral oil, (canola or vegetable, etc)
- 1 tablespoon vanilla extract
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- ⅓ cup unsweetened cocoa powder
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1½ teaspoon baking soda
- ¼ teaspoon baking powder
- 2 cups finely shredded zucchini, leaving the moisture that comes with it
- 2 cups semi-sweet chocolate chips, divided
Instructions
- Spray a 9x13 baking dish (preferably metal) and preheat your oven to 350 F.
- In a large mixing bowl whisk together the sugar, oil, and vanilla extract. Add the flour, cocoa powder, salt, baking soda, baking powder and mix until almost combined. Add the zucchini in and mix again until mostly combined. It will appear kind of dry. Let it sit for 2 minutes to let the zucchini release more moisture. Add 1 ½ cups chocolate chips and stir once more.
- Spread the batter in the baking dish and sprinkle the remaining chocolate on top. Bake for about 27-32 minutes or until an inserted toothpick comes out with a few moist crumbs.
- Remove from the oven and let cool in the pan on top of a wire cooling rack. Brownies will fall apart if cut when hot. Let cool for at least 20 minutes before cooling.
