Good if you want a nice chocolate CAKE. You don't taste the zucchini at all. But not great if you're craving brownies.~ Theresa

Sounds weird, but turned out very well. They were very moist and you couldn't even tell there was zucchini in it. The frosting was delicious!

This is very much more of a snack cake than a brownie. Be sure not to cook them too long as they will dry out (i.e., glass pan). Also, the frosting is a must to make and it completes the brownie.

I agree with the other posters; this is not really a brownie - definitely more cake-like. Wonderful flavor, though!! I used a whipped chocolate ganache for the frosting, but next time I'll try the PB/chocolate mixture. Great way to use up the zucchini for a sweet treat!

This is zucchini CAKE, not brownies. It's kind of a light beige color, since there's only 1/4 cup of cocoa in it. I tried adding dark chocolate chips to help with the chocolate flavor. It tastes OK but it wasn't brownies like I wanted. I won't be making this one again.

Definitely more of a cake than a brownie recipe. I added 1/2 cup choc. chips to batter and frosted with regular homemade choc. frosting. My family thought this cake was awesome. There was a fight for the last piece and my youngest asked me to make it again. I have made it twice so far. Very good.

Awful! Not enough chocolate flavor and more like a cake instead of a brownie. I took them to work and even the guy I call Tony Two Stomachs didn't take seconds. Not much flavor at all. Ugh!

This was so yummy even without frosting. I will make it again. No one knows it has zucchini in it. I leave the peelings on for fiber!

I would change nothing on this recipe! The brownies were moist and dense, so they didn't fall apart. The frosting was a breeze to make and was an awesome topping. Just an fyi, I wash the zucchini and do not peel them before shredding. I think that makes a difference in the consistency. Normally I am not a commenter on recipes but this one really wowed my husband and me.

I would make again but I would modify the recipe. Not enough chocolate flavor, I would add more chocolate or maybe some chocolate chips. Cake like brownies, not dense at all. I used chocolate frosting instead of the peanut butter/chocolate frosting.
