MARTIAN COOKIES



Martian Cookies image

We had a cooking class at Children's Hospital in Orange, CA. These were a favorite for the patients and adults. You should have been there to smell the wonderful scent of cookies right out of the oven and see the children's faces!!! I think these are called martian cookies because of the green flecks, and they are out of this world!!

MARTIAN COOKIES (ZUCCHINI & LOTS OF OTHER STUFF!)



Martian Cookies (Zucchini & lots of other stuff!) image

I found these online many years ago. I think they are called martian cookies because of the green zucchini flecks. My husband loves them and has asked for them repeatedly, but I had lost the recipe. I haven't made them in awhile and therefore the serving size is approximate.
