Ingredients
4 T unsalted butter, at room temperature
2/3 c sugar
1 egg
3/4 t vanilla
2 1/2 T Hershey's Special Dark Cocoa (if you can't get this just use your favorite unsweetened cocoa powder, though this makes for a wonderful dark chocolate)
1 tsp baking powder
1/2 tsp baking soda
1/4 tsp salt
1/4 tsp cinnamon
3/4 c all-purpose flour
2 1/2 T buttermilk
3/4 c grated zucchini
Instructions
Preheat oven to 350 F. Prepare 8 muffin tins.
Beat together the butter & sugar until light & fluffy. Beat in the egg & vanilla. Add the cocoa, baking powder, baking soda, salt, cinnamon & 1/4 c of flour. Beat to combine. Add the buttermilk & beat until combined. Add in the remaining 1/2 c flour & beat until just combined, the dough will be quite stiff but don’t worry the zucchini adds a lot of moisture. Stir in the zucchini.
Fill the muffin tins 3/4 full. Bake for 22 – 25 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into middle comes out clean. Allow to cool completely on a rack before frosting.
