Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Line 9 1/2"x13" baking pan {1/4 sheet pan size} with parchment paper, lightly spray with nonstick cooking spray, and set aside.
- In a medium saucepan, melt the oil, chocolate chips, and cocoa together over medium-low heat. Remove from heat and stir in sugar, eggs, vanilla, and zucchini. Stir in dry ingredients, then pour into prepared pan. Spread out evenly and bake 15-20 minutes or until a toothpick comes out clean when inserted in the middle. {A few moist crumbs is fine.}
- While brownies are baking, melt butter, cocoa powder, chocolate chips, and milk together and simmer gently 1 minute. Remove from heat, then whisk in vanilla and powdered sugar.
- Once brownies are pulled from the oven, pour hot frosting over bars immediately. Spread to smooth, if needed. Cool 5-10 minutes before cutting into pieces and serving.
Notes
- Freezing Instructions. Bake the brownies accordingly and top them with the glaze. After cooling completely, cover in plastic wrap a couple of times. Then top it all off with some aluminum foil. These zucchini brownies stay good for up to three months in the freezer!
