Make the most of that zucchini haul with these decadent (and easy!) double-chocolate treats. One of our editors makes these every summer—for a while, they were the only zucchini recipe her kids would eat.

Ingredients

1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
1/2 cup cocoa powder
1 tsp baking powder
1 tsp baking soda
1/2 tsp salt
2 eggs
1 cup granulated sugar
1/2 cup milk
1/4 cup canola oil
1 cup grated zucchini , excess liquid squeezed out
1/2 cup chocolate chips

Instructions

PREHEAT oven to 375F.
STIR flour with cocoa powder, baking powder, baking soda and salt in a medium bowl.
BEAT eggs with sugar, milk and canola oil in a large bowl until combined.
STIR in flour mixture, then zucchini and chocolate chips. Scoop batter into a greased 12-cup muffin pan. Bake until a cake tester inserted into centre comes out clean, about 25 min. Cool zucchini muffins in pan.
