How to Make Zucchini Cookies

  1. Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C). Grease or line baking sheets.
  2. In a large bowl, cream together 1 cup (2 sticks) softened margarine and 1 ½ cups granulated sugar until light and fluffy.
  3. Beat in 2 large eggs one at a time, then stir in 2 cups grated zucchini.
  4. In a separate bowl, whisk together 3 cups all-purpose flour, 1 teaspoon baking soda, ½ teaspoon salt, 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon, ¼ teaspoon ground cloves, and ¼ teaspoon ground nutmeg.
  5. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined. Do not overmix.
  6. Cover the dough and chill in the refrigerator for at least 1 hour (or overnight for best results).
  7. Drop rounded teaspoonfuls of dough onto the prepared baking sheets, leaving about 2 inches between each cookie.
  8. Bake for 8-10 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden brown and the centers are set.
  9. Let the cookies cool on the baking sheets for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
