Zucchini Brownies

I found this on Allrecipes.com from Marian. These brownies are fabulous! There isn't a typo in the recipe, it doesn't call for any eggs. That's what makes these brownies fudgy. I haven't tried it but I'm sure you can add an egg and it will be more cakey if you prefer. Because they're fudgy I don't put any frosting on them and they are still fabulous but to each his own.



1/2 c. vegetable oil
1 1/2 c. white sugar
2 tsp. vanilla extract
2 c. flour
1/2 c. unsweetened cocoa powder
1 1/2 tsp. baking soda
1 tsp. salt
2 c. shredded zucchini
1/2 c. chopped walnuts

Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Grease and flour a 9 x 13 inch baking pan.
In a large bowl, mix together the oil, sugar and vanilla until well blended. Combine flour, 1/2 c. cocoa, baking soda, and salt; stir into sugar mixture (it will be a course texture). Fold in zucchini and walnuts. Spread evenly into the prepared pan. Bake for 25-30 minutes in the preheated oven, until brownies spring back when lightly touched.

Chocolate Frosting:
6 T. unsweetened cocoa powder
1/4 c. margarine
2 c. powdered sugar
1/4 c. milk
1/2 tsp. vanilla extract

Melt together cocoa and margarine; set aside to cool. In a medium bowl, blend together the powdered sugar, milk and vanilla. Stir in cocoa mixture. Spread over cooled brownies.
