FROSTED ZUCCHINI BROWNIES



Frosted Zucchini Brownies image

These are so moist and chocolaty. A recipe passed down from my mother-in-law who passed away 10 years ago. The first time I made these my husband and I cried as he said, 'This is my mom!' So to honor a special woman whose 5 food groups were chocolate chip cookies, chocolate cake, brownies, chocolate candy, and chocolate ice cream, I give you the ultimate brownie recipe!

Absolutely the best way to use zucchini! Moist and fudgy, worth the calories. My mother in law will do almost anything for me if I make her these! From Taste of Home.
