Midwest Keech

Well, I used our Monster to make Double Chocolate Zucchini Muffins . As you can see, the kids really liked them. Shhh...Don't tell them they're zucchini. Instead of making bread, I made muffins - regular & mini-sized. I made 3 batches with all the zucchini I had. These are the ones I ended up freezing. I had more than this that we ate in a couple of days & shared with the missionaries when they came for dinner. All in all, I think (from 3 batches) I ended up with 8-9 dozen mini-muffins and about 5-6 dozen regular muffins. I was super-happy with the way they turned out. Because of the cocoa, I was able to hide the GREEN from the zucchini. If you look carefully, there is a little. But the kids like them so much, they scarf them down - probably without even tasting them. Yummy, yummy. This is definitely a recipe I will use again.
