    A Healthy Zucchini Chocolate Chip Cookies Recipe is the best of both worlds; it has both the healthy zucchini AND lots of sweet, chocolaty flavor! I call it a healthy-ish cookie recipe because it has zucchini in it...but it also has sugar - you win some, you lose some!

    Healthy Zucchini Chocolate Chip Cookies Recipe

    Have you ever had zucchini muffins or zucchini bread and thought..."this would taste amazing with chocolate chips in it?" Well, I have too! So many times, in fact, that I came up with this Chocolate Chip Zucchini Bread recipe a few years back. It is TO DIE FOR.

    Seriously! Not to worry, today's recipe doesn't have nearly as much chocolate as that heavenly bread - it is a much healthier snacking option and is still totally delicious! 

    I pretty much love throwing chocolate chips into EVERYTHING. Everything is better with chocolate chips...but in this case, the chocolate chips actually taste better with a little zucchini! 

    And it's healthy. ish.
