Zucchini Brownies - I am posting this recipe again as it was so popular. Hope you enjoy.

It's that time of the year when zucchini is in abundance. So, do you need a recipe to help use up all that zucchini? Here is a recipe for zucchini brownies from the cookbook, Cooking with the Horse & Buggy People II. These brownies are soooo moist and you would never know that they have zucchini as one of the ingredients. Hey, this is a great way to get your kids to eat zucchini and they will never know unless you tell them. ; ) lol

Zucchini Brownies
4 eggs
1 1/2 cup oil
2 cup sugar
2 cup flour
2 tsp. soda
2 tsp. cinnamon
1 tsp. salt
4 Tbsp. cocoa
1 tsp. vanilla
3 cups shredded zucchini
1 cup nuts
Beat eggs, oil, and sugar. Sift flour, soda, cinnamon, salt, and cocoa. Mix well. Add vanilla, zucchini, and nuts. Mix all together and spread on a 10x 15 jellyroll pan. Bake at 350 degrees for 30 minutes. These are good plain, but you may frost them with you favorite frosting.
Mrs. Andy M. A. Troyer

This is the recipe I used for my frosting.

Chocolate Frosting
1/2 cup butter
1 tsp. vanilla
1 1/2 cup sugar
1/3 cup evaporated milk
Combine in pan. Stir well and bring to a boil for 1 minute. Stir in 1/2 cup of chocolate chips. Stir until melted. Spread on brownies immediately.
