Zucchini is one of the best ingredients for healthy baking, since it imparts a soft, moist texture and melds beautifully into the surrounding flavors while delivering helpful vitamins and minerals, including manganese and vitamin C. The use of date paste as a sweetener here means that a fudgy quality is also maintained, and a doubling down on chocolate - cocoa and chips - helps ensure that this updated recipe will still feel like a classic favorite.
