📝 Preparation Steps
1
Zucchini Brownies
2
Preheat oven to 350 degrees.Line a 9 x 9 or 8 x 8 pan with aluminum foil or parchment paper. Lightly spray with cooking spray or grease with butter. Set aside.
3
Add butter to a medium saucepan and cook over medium heat until light brown / caramel in color. ⏱️ 5-10 minutes. Make sure to keep and eye on it so butter does not burn. It also helps to use a light colored saucepan for this.
4
Pour browned butter into a large bowl along with sugar, cocoa powder, salt, instant coffee granules and baking powder. Stir until combined and allow to rest for ⏱️ 5 minutes or until the mixture has cooled down.

6
Fold in the flour, shredded zucchini and chocolate chips just until combined. (Do not over mix)
7
Pour the batter into the prepared pan and bake for ⏱️ 25 minutes or until the top is set and a toothpick comes out slightly clean. (I like to underbake mine for extra fudgey brownies)
8
Cool completely and lift out the aluminum foil or parchment paper.
9
Frost with chocolate ganache cut into 9 brownies and serve!
10
Chocolate Ganache
11
Add chocolate chips and heavy cream to a medium microwave safe bowl. Heat in ⏱️ 15 second intervals until fully melted.Allow the ganache to cool for about ⏱️ 2-3 minutes. Pour and spread ontop of the cooled brownies.
12
Place back into the fridge to allow the ganache to set.
