Zucchini chocolate chip cookies
This recipe comes from an old Sunset and gives the impression of making halfway nutritious cookies (if you don't count all the butter and sugar--we prefer to focus on the zucchini).

We wish we could say that these are far and away better than the Keebler Grasshoppers you can buy at the grocery store. They're good...but they're a bit of effort. Not back-breaking effort, mind you. Just more work than we like to put into food.
We like to randomly make up chocolate chip cookie recipes. It's how we prefer to spend rainy afternoons. Sometimes our concoctions work. Sometimes not so much. But yesterday, we think we hit upon a winner.
This week comes but once a year, where we're baking our asses off for two kids' back-to-back birthdays.
We know we're a day late and beignet short. Fat Tuesday was yesterday. But, really, you can make them anytime. They're easier than doughnuts and so, so good.
We've all had these. We all love these. They're also known as 7-layer bars. Though ours are only 5 layers. Because we're too lazy to throw on the sixth and seventh and because we can't do the butterscotch chips and walnuts. But you know what? We don't miss them at all.
Creamy, chocolatey and delicious. It's hard to go wrong with this recipe when you're in the mood for a homemade dessert.
Forget the year of the Ox, it's the month of the home-baked cookie. Didn't you know? How else do we explain TWO cookie recipes in a row?
Now what kind of a half-assed cooking blog would we be if we didn't include a recipe for no-bake cookies? Not only are they fantastically delicious, but they're super simple.
