Moist and fudgy chocolate zucchini brownies that are surprisingly easy to make. The zucchini adds moisture without any zucchini flavor!
Ingredients
Main Ingredients
- 0.5 cup unsalted butter, melted
- 1.5 cup granulated sugar
- 2 large eggs
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 0.75 cup all-purpose flour
- 0.3 cup unsweetened cocoa powder

Instructions
Preparation Steps
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease and flour a 9x13 inch baking pan.
- In a large bowl, whisk together melted butter and sugar. Beat in eggs one at a time, then stir in vanilla extract.
- In a separate medium bowl, whisk together flour, cocoa powder, baking soda, and salt.
- Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined. Do not overmix.
- Fold in the shredded zucchini and chocolate chips.
- Pour the batter into the prepared baking pan and spread evenly.
- Bake for 30-35 minutes, or until a wooden skewer inserted into the center comes out with moist crumbs attached.
- Let cool in the pan for at least 15 minutes before cutting and serving.
Notes
For an even more fudgy brownie, you can reduce the baking time slightly. Ensure the zucchini is well-drained to avoid a soggy brownie.
