Fudgy Zucchini Brownies

 

I had zucchini, I was craving chocolate so I went in search of a recipe and I found these Fudgy Zucchini Brownies on the Taste of Home website.

I did peel the zucchini to get it by my veggiephobes and left the nuts out because they are allergic. I find these more like cake than brownies, but who cares?  They are delicious no matter what you call them.
 

Thanks to Ruth B for sharing the recipe, they are super simple to make and really delicious!
