CHOCOLATE ZUCCHINI BREAD

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350°F degrees and grease an 8½ x 4½-inch loaf pan with nonstick cooking spray.
• Place the butter in a large microwave-safe mixing bowl and microwave for one minute, or until just melted. Stir in the brown sugar until completely smooth. Add the eggs and vanilla and stir until incorporated. (Be sure to add the eggs after the brown sugar is mixed in, as the hot butter alone could cook the eggs.)
• Whisk together the flour, cocoa powder, salt, baking powder, baking soda and instant coffee (if using) in a medium bowl. Add to the butter mixture and stir until well combined. It will be very thick.
• Stir in the shredded zucchini and chocolate chips. (It will still be thick -- that's okay.)
• Spoon the batter into the prepared loaf pan and spread evenly. Bake for 60 to 65 minutes, or until a toothpick or cake tester inserted into the center comes out clean (save for perhaps a smear from the melted chocolate chips). Let the loaf cool on a rack for about 10 minutes before turning out onto a rack to cool completely.
• Freezer-Friendly Instructions: The bread can be frozen for up to 3 months. After it is completely cooled, wrap it securely in aluminum foil, freezer wrap or place in a freezer bag. Thaw overnight in the refrigerator before serving.

Steps:

• Reduce the mixer speed to low and beat in the flour mixture in 3 additions, alternating with the buttermilk in 2 additions, beginning and ending with the flour, scraping the sides of the bowl occasionally. Fold the zucchini and chocolate into the batter and pour into the prepared pan. Center the zucchini slice, lengthwise, on top of the batter.
• Bake until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean, about 55 minutes. Cool completely in the pan on a wire rack.
