Double Chocolatey Zucchini Muffins by Denise Sherin

These muffins are so delicious! They are great for breakfast or a snack. They freeze well, so you can pull out one at a time to throw in a lunchbox. My son loves them and he grates the zucchini!

Aunt Betty's Chocolate Chip Cookie Bars by Carolinaheartstrings
