(For approx. 20-24 larger cookies)<\/p>\n\n\n\n
I. Ingredients
Component Quantity Amount
Flour 250g
Baking powder 1tsp
Baking soda 1tsp
Salt 1\/2tsp
Butter (melted, but not hot) 115g
Crystal sugar 100g
Brown sugar (or extra granulated sugar) 50g

Chocolate chips 150g Dark or milk chocolate.
II. Preparation<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Preparation (Managing Moisture)
Wringing out zucchini: Grate the zucchini, place in a strainer or clean kitchen towel, and squeeze out any excess water! This is critical, otherwise the cookies will not bake through.
Preheat: Preheat oven to 180\u00b0C. Line a baking sheet with baking paper.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Mixing the Dough
Wet Bases: Mix the melted butter with the granulated and brown sugar. Add the eggs, pumpkin puree, and spice mix. Mix well.
Dry Bases: In a separate bowl, mix together the flour, baking powder, baking soda and salt.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Mixing: Gradually add the dry mixture to the wet base until combined. Do not overmix!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Finishing: Fold in the well-drained zucchini and chocolate chips.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Baking
Dosing: Using a spoon, drop mounds of the mixture onto the baking sheet. The cookies will not spread out too much.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Baking: Bake for approx. 12-15 minutes. The cookies are done when the edges are set but the center is still slightly soft.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Cooling: Let the cookies cool in the pan for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely. This will give them their soft, cakey texture.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
