| Directions | Preheat oven to 350°. Grease and flour a 9x13 inch baking pan. In a large bowl mix together the oil, sugar and 2 tsp. vanilla until well blended. Combine the flour, 1/2 C. cocoa, baking soda and salt; stir into the sugar mixture. Fold in the zucchini and walnuts (if desired). Spread evenly into the prepared pan. Bake for 25-30 minutes in the preheated oven, until the cake springs back when touched gently. To make the frosting, melt together the 6 T. of cocoa and butter or margarine; set aside to cool. In a medium bowl, blend together the confectioners' sugar, milk and 1/2 tsp. vanilla. Stir in the cocoa mixture and blend until light and fluffy. Spread over cooled brownies. |
