Chocolate Zucchini Bread

Chocolate Zucchini Bread
(Carrie, from my office shared this recipe - it is from the Lion House Cookbook)

2 ounces unsweetened chocolate (2 blocks), melted
2 cups zucchini, grated
2 cups all purpose flour
1 tsp. salt
1 tsp. baking soda
½ tsp. baking powder
½ tsp. cinnamon
3 eggs
1 cup sugar
1 cup brown sugar
1 cup oil
1 tsp. vanilla
1 cup chocolate chips, semi sweet

Prepare two 8x4 inch loaf pans by greasing and flouring or by lining with parchment paper. Melt unsweetened chocolate and set aside. Wash and grate zucchini. Set aside. Measure flour, salt, baking soda, baking powder and cinnamon into a bowl. Stir and set aside. Place eggs in mixing bowl and beat. Add the sugars, oil, melted chocolate and vanilla. Beat until creamy. Add the zucchini and stir together. Mix in dry ingredients until incorporated. Add chocolate chips. Bake at 325° for 50-60 minutes. Makes 2 loaves.

It is absolutely FANTASTIC!
