CHOCOLATE ZUCCHINI BREAD
Steps:
- Preheat oven, prepare loaf pans: Preheat oven to 350°F, with a rack in the middle. Grease two 9x5-inch loaf pans with baking spray or butter.
- Beat sugar and eggs, add melted butter, instant coffee granules, almond extract: In a separate large bowl, beat together the sugar and eggs until smooth, about a minute. You can do this with an electric mixer on medium speed, or by hand with a wooden spoon. (I'm lazy and use a mixer but it's easy enough to do by hand.) Add the melted butter, instant coffee granules, and almond extract and beat until smooth.
- Add zucchini to the egg mixture: Mix the shredded zucchini into the sugar egg mixture. Add the flour to the zucchini mixture in 3 additions, stirring to combine after each addition.
- Cool: Remove to a rack. Let cool in the pan for 5 minutes, then run a blunt knife around the edges to separate the bread from the pan. Remove from the loaf pans and let cool completely on a rack. Note that if you try to slice the chocolate zucchini bread before it has completely cooled, it will be rather crumbly. It's also easiest to slice with a bread knife.

Steps:
- 1. Preheat oven to 350°F. Grease a 9x5-inch loaf pan with baking spray.

- 4. Whisk together the flour, unsweetened cocoa, baking soda, salt, and cinnamon in a large bowl. Whisk until there the ingredients are well combined.
- 5. In a separate large bowl, beat together the sugar and eggs until smooth. Add the melted butter, instant coffee granules, and vanilla extract and beat until smooth.
- 6. Add the shredded zucchini into the sugar-egg mixture.
- 7. Then add the flour to the zucchini mixture in small additions, stirring to combine after each addition.
- 8. Stir until well blended. Fold in all but a small handful of chocolate chips.
- 9. Pour batter into greased pan. Sprinkle with a handful of chocolate chips.
- 10. Place into the oven. Bake for 50 minutes at 350°F or until a skewer inserted into the center comes out clean and easily.

Tips:
- Prep your zucchini beforehand: Grate your zucchini and squeeze out any excess moisture using a cheesecloth or paper towels. This will prevent your bread from becoming too soggy.
- Use good quality chocolate: The chocolate chips or cocoa powder you use will have a big impact on the flavor of your bread. Opt for high-quality chocolate with a cocoa content of at least 70%.
- Don't overmix the batter: Overmixing the batter can result in a tough, dense bread. Mix just until the ingredients are combined.
- Bake the bread until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out with just a few moist crumbs attached: Overbaking will dry out the bread.
- Let the bread cool completely before slicing and serving: This will allow the flavors to meld and the bread to set properly.

This easy and delicious zucchini bread gets a chocolaty upgrade with the addition of chocolate chips and cocoa powder. It's a moist, flavorful bread that is perfect for breakfast, lunch, or a snack. The zucchini adds a subtle sweetness and moisture to the bread, while the chocolate chips and cocoa powder give it a rich, chocolaty flavor. This bread is sure to be a hit with everyone who tries it.
