Yummy Zucchini Cookies Recipe


Don't have a clue what to do with all that zucchini?  Well here is recipe that has chocolate chips, nuts and powdered sugar.  I got the recipe from a neighbor when she gave me some zucchini and I asked her what I was suppose to do with it.  Yeah everybody gets that look when you say zucchini cookies but you can't taste the zucchini.  I made a batch last and was pleasantly surprized to see the container still full when I came home.

Zucchini Cookies         
3/4 cup butter                     2 tsp baking powder
1 1/2 cup sugar                   1 tsp cinnamon
1 egg                                  1/2 tsp salt
1 tsp vanilla                         1 cup nuts
1 1/2 cup grated zucchini     1 cup chocolate chips
2 1/2 cups flour
Bake 350 for 15 minutes Sprinkle with powdered sugar
makes 4 to 5 dozen
I throw the first five ingredients in my mixer until creamy.  Then add the next four and add the nuts and chocolate chips last.  I use more chocolate chips then called for...I like chocolate what can I say.  I used pecans because that's what I had on hand.  Walnuts are my favorite.  I also add some fresh grated nutmeg too.
