Instructions
- 1. Preheat the oven to 350° F. Line a 9×9 inch square pan with parchment paper.
- 2. Add the butter to a pot set over medium heat. Allow the butter to brown lightly until it smells toasted, 2-3 minutes. Remove from the heat. Mix in the mini chocolate chips until all are melted. Stir in the vanilla.
- 3. In a bowl, whisk the eggs for 1 minute until bubbly on top. Add the melted chocolate and powdered sugar, whisking until smooth, 1-2 minutes. Mix in the grated zucchini. Add the flour, cocoa powder, baking powder, and salt. Stir until just combined. Stir in the chocolate chips.
- 4. Spread the batter into the prepared pan. Bake for 30-35 minutes or until the brownies are just set. They will be thick.
- 5. To make the frosting. Whisk the butter, 2 cups powdered sugar, cocoa powder, vanilla, and warm milk in a bowl, adding additional warm milk until the frosting becomes thicker, but still drizzly. Taste, adding more sugar if needed. Spread the frosting over the brownies. Let set for 1-ish hour…or slice, snack, and enjoy!
