Here's another zucchini recipe for you guys! My little helper and I made this Double Chocolate Zucchini Bread the other morning and it was amazing! It's always so fun to spend time together in the kitchen.
This was our finished product. You'd never know there's 2 cups of any vegetable in this! It tastes just like a brownie. Although there is actually no nutritional value to this, it still makes eating veggies that much more satisfying!
The intense chocolate flavor was totally worth every bit of this mess...
When Landon woke up from his nap he had this waiting for him on the table. I've never seen him climb into his chair so fast in my life. Let's just say he's a huge fan!
