After reading the reviews, I made a couple of changes. I used about 1 1/2 cups of zucchini, one egg, and added chopped Symphony bars. I halved the frosting recipe, adding a bit of half and half to it to make it smooth but not runny, making it a thin glaze to the top. Turned out fabulous.

I made 3 batches of these for a bake sale. I followed the recipe to a T except I did not add walnuts (in case of allergies). They came out perfect. I shredded the zucchini with a regular cheese shredder/grater, and filled up my measuring cup with 2 cups full for each batch. I did not have to press them in the pan because the zucchini added plenty of moisture, but I did blend/stir all the ingredients together for a while. When they were done, you could not see or taste the zucchini at all! They do taste better cold in my opinion, but I like all brownies cold.

Yet another skeptic trying the recipe "just to see if this is legit". Un. Freakin'. Real. And I bake for a living. I changed nothing. EXCELLENT recipe as it is. Best part? The kids were not forewarned of the kicker ingredient and were none the wiser. Two woots for Marian!!!

The best brownie I have ever tasted! My family doesn't like nuts, so left them out -- and I did sub the oil with applesauce. Very easy recipe with outstanding results.

I thought these were just okay. I didn't make the frosting so this is just a review on the brownie itself. The bottom half of the brownie is nice and fudgey, but the tops are too crunchy from the sugar. The brownies have an off flavor that I can't exactly place. I have made zucchini desserts before that were much better. I don't plan on making these again.

These are really great. I did add a tsp. of espresso powder just because I like it in my chocolate. These went over big at my cousins graduation party.

Every time I make these they get rave reviews! Kids at school even ask my kids if I'm going to make them again! I do not frost mine, only dust with powdered sugar. I also do not use nuts, but instead use mini chocolate chips. Quick and easy!

This is my first review on allrecipes.com. These brownies are AWESOME. A friend of mine served them at her dinner party. I loved it so much, I asked for the recipe and was SHOCKED to learn zucchini was in it. I followed the recipe as is for the brownie. No need for the frosting as I'm not a frosting fan.

I'm not sure where everyone else is getting such a great brownie out of this. I made these and did not care for them. The top layer of the brownie is not moist and tastes salty. The bottom layer has no flavor and doesn't even taste like a brownie. I did everything exactly to the directions.
