Zucchini Chocolate Cookies
Ingredients
  • 1/2 cup butter flavored shortening
  • 1/2 cup white sugar
  • 1/2 cup brown sugar
  • 1 egg
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 2 1/4 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1/3 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1 3/4 cups grated zucchini
Instructions
1
Preheat the oven to its highest temperature setting, which is 350 degrees Fahrenheit. Ensure your baking sheets are properly coated with a non-stick substance to prevent sticking.
2
In a large mixing bowl, combine the softened butter and two types of sugar until you achieve a smooth consistency. Use an electric mixer to blend the ingredients together. Next, add in one egg and a hint of vanilla extract to enhance the flavor.
3
In another bowl, whisk together four dry ingredients: flour, cocoa powder, baking soda, and salt. Gradually incorporate these dry ingredients into the wet mixture, stirring until well combined. Then, fold in the grated zucchini to add moisture and texture.
4
Drop rounded spoonfuls of the dough onto the prepared baking sheets, spacing them out evenly.
5
Place the baking sheets in the preheated oven and bake for 8 to 10 minutes, or until the cookies are cooked through.
6
Allow the cookies to rest on the baking sheets for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
