Ingredients
- 1/2 lb unsalted butter cut into pieces
- 16 oz semisweet chocolate chips 2 1/2 cups by measuring cup, divided
- 3 large eggs
- 1 1/2 cups granulated sugar
- 2 Tbsp light olive oil or vegetable oil
- 1 Tbsp vanilla extract
- 1 1/2 cup all-purpose flour measured correctly, or use gluten-free flour
- 1/3 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
- 1 tsp baking powder
- 1 tsp baking soda
- 1/2 tsp fine sea salt
- 2 cups shredded zucchini do not drain (from 1 medium or 1/2 lb zucchini)*
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350 ̊F. Butter a 9x13 metal pan and line it with parchment paper.
- In a medium saucepan over medium/low heat, melt together 2 cups chocolate chips and butter while whisking constantly. Do not boil. Once it’s smooth, remove from heat and set aside to cool for 15 minutes.
- In a small mixing bowl, whisk together flour, cocoa powder, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.
- In a second large bowl, whisk together eggs, sugar, oil, and vanilla until blended. Whisk in the cooled chocolate mixture.
- Add dry ingredients to the wet ingredients and stir until well combined.
- Fold in the zucchini until well incorporated. Pour the batter into the prepared baking pan. Sprinkle the remaining 1/2 cup chocolate chips over the top.
- Bake at 350 ̊F for 35-40 minutes. For fudgy brownies, bake for 35-37 minutes or until a toothpick comes out mostly clean. If you prefer them a bit more firm, bake for 40 minutes or until a toothpick comes out clean. Cool in the pan until nearly at room temperature then cut into bars before serving.
Notes
- *Grated on the large holes of a box grater.
