Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 325 degrees F. Line baking pans with parchment paper, silpat liner or lightly grease with nonstick cooking spray.
- Melt the 2/3 cup chocolate chips in a small bowl in the microwave (1-minute intervals at 50% power stirring inbetween taking care not to overheat) or in a double boiler on the stove until just melted. Set aside to cool to warm room temperature (as in, a finger dipped in will feel like tepid bath water but should certainly not scorch your finger with heat).
- In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, cocoa powder, baking soda and salt.
- In a large bowl or in the bowl of an electric stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, whip together the butter, granulated and brown sugars, for 1-2 minutes until light and creamy. Add the egg and vanilla and mix another minute or so. Stir in the zucchini.
- Pour in the melted chocolate and mix until well-combined.
- Add the dry ingredients and mix on low speed until a few streaks of flour remain. Stir in the chocolate chips until everything is just incorporated.
- Scoop the cookie dough into tablespoon or so sized balls and place about 2-inches apart on the prepared cookie sheets.
- Bake for 10-11 minutes until just set.
Notes
- Zucchini: here's a quick video on draining zucchini. If you start with about 2 cups of shredded zucchini, you should end up with about 1 cup after draining (although it will depend on the exact zucchini - both size and variety and water content).
