Chocolate Zucchini Bread

Decadent, addictive - yet full of veggies.

Ingredients:

• 2 medium or 3 small zukes, grated, then nuked 2 minutes (do not discard liquid)
• 2 eggs
• 1/2 cup butter
• 2/3 cup sugar
• 1 tsp vanilla
• 2/3 cup gluten-free baking mix, or rice flour *
• 2/3 cup unsweetened cocoa
• 1/4 tsp salt
• 2/3 tsp baking soda
• 2/3 cup chocolate chips

Steps:

• Cream butter and sugar.
• Separate eggs.
• Add yolks and vanilla to butter mixture, beat and set aside.
• Mix the dry ingredients in a separate bowl, then beat into butter mixture.
• Fold in zucchinis, then stir in chips.
• Finally, beat egg whites until fluffy (just shy of peaking) and fold them in.

Bake in a greased, floured loaf pan at 350 for up to 1 hour (check earlier).

* If you aren't trying to bake without gluten, the same amount of regular wheat flour works fine.
