I tried chocolate cake last year; last week I found out about making zucchini brownies and now this... Thanks now I'm going to have to make both! Laughing

I think its funny how you can never hear of something before and then suddenly in the same day you see it twice...am I the only person that happens to?

This is the 2nd recipe TODAY for this kind of cookie.

From Barbara Kingsolver The Animal Vegetable Miracle

Combine in a large bowl:
1 beaten egg
1/2 cup butter, softened
1/2 cup brown sugar
1/3 cup honey
1 tblspn vanilla extract

Combine in separate bowl and then blend into the liquid ingredients:
1 cup white flour
1 cup wheat flour
1/2 tspn baking soda
1/4 tspn cinnamon
1/4 tspn salt
1/4 tspn nutmeg

Stir the following into the other ingredients:
1 cup finely shredded zucchini and 12 ounces of chocolate chips

Drop by spoonfuls onto greased baking sheet, flatten with the back of the spoon. Bake at 350 for 10-15 minutes.

So there is another variation for everyone to try!
ENJOY!!
