Equipment
Ingredients
- 1 box brownie mix
- 3 eggs
- 2 tablespoon water
- 1 cup shredded zucchini
- ½ cup coconut or vegetable oil
- 6 oz chocolate buttercream frosting
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350ºF.
- Shred 1 cup of raw zucchini using a food processor.
- Prepare brownie batter according to package but use half the amount of water since the zucchini will be watery. I use 3 eggs and also coconut oil instead of vegetable oil. Add the shredded zucchini to your brownie batter and stir until completely mixed in.
- Transfer batter into a greased baking pan (grease with coconut oil), and bake according to package.
- While the brownies are baking, prepare the chocolate buttercream frosting per my other recipe (see link in ingredients list). Stir cream cheese into the frosting.
- Cool completely when done, then spread on the chocolate cream cheese frosting. Slice then serve!
Notes
Store brownies at a cool room temperature in an airtight container to prevent frosting from melting or hardening.
