Dirt Brownies

Peggy’s Best Zucchini Brownies

Serves 24—Can be doubled to fit jelly roll pan
2 cups flour
1 1/2 cups sugar
1 t salt
1 t baking soda
1/2 cup cocoa
2 T vanilla
1/2 cup oil
2 cups peeled and grated zucchini
Combine dry ingredients. Add vanilla, oil and zucchini and mix well. Bake in un-greased 9x13 pan at 350 for about 30 min-utes. Frost with the following:
Boil 1 square butter and 1/2 cup milk for 1 minute. Add 1/3 cup cocoa and enough powdered sugar for spreadable consistency.

Notes:
You know I am always in the market for a good recipe that tastes yummy when hot and a little like dirt when cooled. These actually never taste much like dirt. I will not hold that against them...

Plus, there are Zucchinis everywhere around here.

Gretel claims that grated apple works instead of zucchini, too. Decrease sugar in the recipe since apples are sweeter.
