I made these Double Chocolate Zucchini Muffins for my son's birthday this year. He loved them more than cake. The muffins are fluffy and moist. I was a bit skeptical about the zucchini, but it worked perfectly. Now, they are a regular in our home, and I always double the recipe – they disappear fast.
