How to Make Double Chocolate Zucchini Cookies

  1. Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C). Line baking sheets with parchment paper.
  2. In a large bowl, combine 1 cup (200g) grated zucchini, ¾ cup (150g) packed brown sugar, 1 teaspoon baking soda, and ½ cup (113g) softened margarine. Mix until well combined.
  3. Add 1 large egg and 1 teaspoon vanilla extract to the zucchini mixture. Mix until just combined.
  4. In a separate bowl, whisk together 1 ½ cups (190g) all-purpose flour, ¾ cup (60g) unsweetened cocoa powder, ½ teaspoon salt, and 1 cup (170g) semi-sweet chocolate chips.
  5. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined. Do not overmix.
  6. Chill the dough in the refrigerator for at least 1 hour. This helps prevent the cookies from spreading too much.
  7. Scoop rounded teaspoonfuls of dough onto the prepared baking sheets, leaving about 2 inches between each cookie.
  8. Bake for 10-15 minutes, or until the edges are set and the centers are still slightly soft. Do not overbake!
  9. Let the cookies cool on the baking sheets for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
