For even more chocolatey flavor, try using dark chocolate chips or adding a tablespoon of instant espresso powder to the dry ingredients. Squeezing out the excess moisture from the grated zucchini is crucial to prevent the cookies from becoming soggy. Store cooled cookies in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days.
