zucchini brownies

It has been about a week since my last post because Jen and the girls were out of town. They are now back and I have a great recipe for you to try. It is zucchini brownies. I don't have any pictures for this one because Anna was off taking pictures of who knows what, but it looks and taste like a regular brownie. I made a chocolate peanut butter frosting for the top. Amazing!
Grade: A

Ingredients:
1 cup butter, softened
1 1/2 cups sugar
2 eggs
1/2 cup plain yogurt
1 tsp vanilla extract
2 1/2 cups flour
1/4 cup baking cocoa
1 tsp baking soda
1/2 tsp salt
2 cups shredded zucchini

Directions:

1. In a large bowl, cream butter and sugar until light and fluffy. Add eggs, one at a time, beating well after each addition. Beat in yogurt and vanilla. Combine the flour, cocoa, baking soda and salt; gradually add to creamed mixture. Stir in zucchini.

2. Pour into a greased 13 in x9 in baking pan. Bake at 350 for 35-40 minutes or until a toothpick inserted near the center comes out clean.

3. For frosting, in a small saucepan, combine chocolate chips and peanut butter. Cook and stir over low heat until smooth. Spread over warm brownies. Cool on a wire rack. Cut into bars.
