Double Chocolate Zucchini Brownies

Brownies, the word itself makes my kids drool, they are great fans of brownies eventhough i bake rarely brownies coz somehow brownies for me means loads of butter. These flat,bakes squares or bars are well known for their beautiful texture between the cake and cookies. They can be either fudgy,cakey depending upon their density, i love brownies with loads of nuts.Brownies are common in lunchbox, its typically eaten with hand and often served along with milk or coffee, but my choice of serving is always with few scoops of icecream.

I tasted brownies once i landed in Paris, H and myself both had a long walk after visiting the famous white church in Paris. Then he took me to a restaurant and he ordered two brownies with icecream, when i heard the word brownies, i  was bit curious but never showed that i never ate or seen that mystery brownies, once the server served us, i started with a spoon and completely fallen in love with this fudgey bars. Then later,i revealed this secret to my H and he never failed to mock me whenever i make brownies at home. A kid's birthday party without a fudgy brownies, i cant imagine it and this fudgy brownies goes for double chocolate and finely grated zucchini, yea  this beautiful brownies have a veggie in it, trust me you will love it..Check out the Blogging Marathon page for the other Blogging Marathoners doing BM#27.Sending to my own event CWS-Almonds guest hosted by Preeti of Simply Tadka.
