Chocolate Zucchini Bread
Ingredients
- ½ c. (1 stick) melted butter plus more for pan
- ½ c. unsweetened cocoa powder plus more for pan
- 1 ¼ c. all-purpose flour
- 1 tsp. baking soda
- 1 tsp. ground cinnamon
- ¼ tsp. kosher salt

Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350°. Butter a 9″-x-5″ loaf pan and dust with cocoa powder, tapping out any excess.
- In a large bowl, whisk together flour, cocoa powder, baking soda, cinnamon, and salt.
- In another large bowl, stir together sugar, egg, and egg yolk until smooth, 1 minute. Add melted butter and vanilla and mix until smooth, then fold in zucchini. Gradually add flour mixture, then fold in chocolate chips. Transfer batter to prepared pan.
