Preparation Steps
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a loaf pan. In a large mixing bowl, combine the grated zucchini, granulated sugar, brown sugar, and vegetable oil, and mix until well blended.
- Add the eggs one at a time and stir in the vanilla extract. In another bowl, whisk together the flour, cocoa powder, baking soda, baking powder, and salt until combined.
- Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture, stirring gently until just combined. Be careful not to overmix!
- Fold in the chocolate chips, and then pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan. Smooth the top with a spatula.
- Bake in the preheated oven for about 50-55 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean. Allow to cool before slicing and serving.
