8*19*11

Ready for another zucchini recipe? Every gardener I know has more zucchini than they really know what to do with right about this time of year, and lord, we can only eat so much zucchini bread!

This is bar is not unlike a chocolate chip cookie bar. Actually, it pretty much is a chocolate chip cookie bar, but with lots and lots of zucchini in it. That makes it healthy, right? Right. Cookies for breakfast!


Chocolate Chip Zucchini Bars
  • 2 cups grated zucchini
  • 3/4 cup butter
  • 1/2 cup brown sugar
  • 2 eggs
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 3/4 cups whole wheat flour
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
  • 1 1/2 cups chocolate chips
Preheat oven to 350.
In a large bowl, cream butter and sugar with a mixer.
Mix in eggs and vanilla.
In a medium bowl, mix together all dry ingredients.
Add the dry ingredients to the wet, in two additions, mixing well after each.
Stir in the zucchini and chocolate chips.
Grease a 9x13 pan and add the batter.
Bake for 25-30 minutes, or until light brown.
