Instructions
To Make the Brownies
- Preheat oven to 350° and grease your baking dish.
- Whisk together the flour, dark cocoa powder, baking soda, and salt in a large bowl.
- Make a well in the center of the dry ingredients and add to it the white sugar and oil.
- Beat with electric mixer to incorporate, then add the vanilla extract, zucchini, and milk. Mix until well-combined and no dry patches remain.
- Stir in the chocolate chips with a wooden spoon or spatula.
- Scoop batter into pan. Bake for 25-30 minutes (for a 9x13 pan) or 35-45 min (for an 8x8 pan). They're done when a toothpick inserted in the middle comes out clean.
To Make the Chocolate Frosting
- Combine the sugar, dark cocoa powder, butter, and milk in a medium saucepan over medium heat. Bring to a boil for 2-3 minutes, stirring constantly.
- Remove from heat and stir in the vanilla extract. Let stand for 1 minute, then beat with an electric mixer for 3 minutes to thicken.
- Scoop frosting on top of completely cooled brownies and smooth with spatula. Allow frosting to set before serving or storing.
