Good bread, I think I slightly increased the amount of zucchini, and it's definately not dry. It is very stuck to the pans, though, and I did grease them; parchment paper may work better. My chocolate solidified into little pieces, so I have not got nice chocolately looking bread, but it's still tasty.

Great! If you want to, you can use semi-sweet chocolate chips.

Fabulous!! I will definitely make this again. I had to make one substitution and it still turned out very well. I only had two eggs and couldn't bear to wait till I made it to the store to try this. Great recipe!!!

This bread is sinfully good! The only thing I changed was that I used walnuts instead. I had them on hand and they are good for you too! I froze them in slices for lunches. It tastes great when in it's cold/frozen state---give it a try.

These were great! I made them as muffins so I could freeze them individually because my husband doesn't really like sweets. Really good.

This one is a definite keeper--only changes I made was to add pecans in place of the almonds and added cup of semi sweet chocolate chips--the girls at work ate it up, you don't even need any frosting on this one--moist and wonderful--also I didn't have unsweetened chocolate so I used real cocoa--turned out wonderful!

This zucchini bread has a great “fudginess” to it that’s really a pleasant change from the usual zucchini bread recipe. The modifications that I did to the recipe to lower the sugar & fat were; brought the sugar down to 1 1/3 cups along w/adding 2/3 cups natural applesauce which both sweetened the recipe & cut down on the fat needed! I also lowered the oil content to 1/2 cup & added 1/4 cup ground flaxseed. Instead of the chocolate squares, I used 6 Tablespoons of cocoa & threw in 1/2 cup of chocolate chips. The bread came out so moist & delicious, there was no reason to add any glaze. The jury's still out on the almond slices...they were just “okay” but on the whole this was a fantastic recipe & I’m sure we'll make it many times in the future.

I added a mashed banana and some oatmeal to the recipe. Made it into muffins for the kids' lunchboxes. It was a good way to hook some veggies into dessert.

This was delicious, I used 1/2 cup applesauce in place of 1/2 of the oil, used 6 heaping tbsps of cocoa + 1 tbsp oil instead of chocolate squares. Put 1/2 cup chocolate chips and in 1/2 of the batter I added 1/2 cup chopped almonds, therefore I had two varieties. Cooked at 350 for only 50 minutes. It was excellent, everyone loved it!!

Although this is a good standard bread, I found it to be dry. Even though I only cooked it for 50 minutes instead of the 60 called for. Maybe soem additional zucchini and less cook time might moisten it. The next time I will try it as a muffin recipe, it has a good basic flavor, just needs more moisture. The sugar glaze was a must, I used only a drizzle, perhaps more of a full covered "frosting" works better.

Great recipe! I wanted to make 2 full size loaf pans so I made 1.5 of this recipe and added more chocolate than called for. For a 1.5 batch I added 4 ounces of melted semisweet chocolate and about 1/4 cup coco powder. I also toasted the almonds for extra flavor and texture. The bread turned out perfect. Topped it off with a simple white glaze. It's a keeper!

I have lots of zucchini to use up. I halved the sugar and used cocoa powder/veg oil instead of bakers chocolate. Cooking time is a bit long, mine were done in about 40 min. Kids loved it!

My bread turned out well. One change I made was that I traded the almonds for crushed walnuts. Because this calls for 2 loaves and I only have one pan, I cooked my first one to the time on the recipe and it burned on the edges. I cooked the second one for 45 minutes instead of 60 and it made a world of difference - it was not burned and more moist! I'd make this again.

Overall I thought this recipe was great, but I made a few adjustments when I made it. I used twice as much chocolate, substitued applesauce for half of the oil, and ommited the almonds. Even with the applesauce instead of the oil, it was still nice and moist. I think next time I make it, I am going to put chocolate chips in it and then it will definately be five stars!

This recipe was good. It was not as moist as I would have liked but had a goos flavor. I left out the nuts. This bread freezes well. I will make this again.

I doubled the chocolate as recommended. The flavor was OK, not great. The texture was dry. Will not use this recipe again

I didn't have any squares of chocolate, so I substituted some melted semisweet choc chips and some cocoa powder. I also stirred in some semisweet chips at the end. It was wonderful!
