1 cup (2 sticks) of butter, softened
1 cup sugar
1/2 cup brown sugar
2 eggs
1 teaspoon vanilla
2 cups grated zucchini
2 3/4 cups flour (all-purpose)
2 teaspoons baking powder
1 teaspoon cinnamon
1 teaspoon salt
1 cup milk chocolate chips (optional- but highly recommended!)
Frosting Ingredients:
1/4 cup (1/2 stick) butter
2 tablespoons milk
1/2 teaspoon vanilla
2-3 cups powdered sugar

Steps:

Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
In a bowl, beat together butter, sugar, and brown sugar until fluffy. Add eggs and vanilla; mix well. Add zucchini to all ingredients. Add flour, baking powder, cinnamon, and salt to wet ingredients and combine until thoroughly incorporated. Fold in chocolate chips and drop by tablespoonfuls onto large baking sheets (these cookies grow a lot, so keep that in mind as you drop them onto the pans).
Bake for 12-18 minutes, until golden brown. Let cookies cool.
Mix together frosting ingredients and scoop frosting into a piping bag (or a large Ziploc bag with a tiny corner cut off). Drizzle frosting over cooled cookies and let harden.
Makes about 4 dozen cookies.
