    This is flawless!!! I love, love, LOVE this recipe. I used shredded zucchini instead of mashed. And I only have one regular-sized bread pan, so I made the rest into muffins. The muffins take less time to bake than the loaf, so check them and take them out of the oven earlier. YUM!!!! Incredible. - 7/14/10

    I made this TWICE in one weekend it was so good!! I used all whole wheat flour, and only used 1/2 c. brown sugar. I also top mine with some extra chocolate chips. I'll make this again and again! - 9/4/08

    I loved this recipe....hubby didn't care too much for it. I omited the chips and made it in 2 loaf pans. I will make it again, I think I would like it with some nuts in it too. - 8/13/08

    I tried this recipe and the one for dark chocolate zucchini bread. This one came out moister and held up better to being frozen. - 1/16/11

    The first time I made this, people said it was too hard to eat. Maybe I didn't squeeze out enough of the liquid from the zucchini. The next time I baked this in a bundt pan as a cake, and everyone loved it. - 10/4/08

    I made this using only .5 cups of sugar and added a bit of instant expresso to help the chocolate pop. It actually came out very sweet for me ( I don't really have a sweet tooth though). One thing was the cooking time was much shorter in my oven. - 9/2/15

    Excellent, baked in a rectangular pan for only 30 minutes. Used a bit more chocolate chunks. - 8/8/13

    I made this and brought it to someone's house and it was a huge hit. I'm making it again! - 9/27/11

    Took it to the firehouse where "healthy food" is a dirty word, and they LOVED it! Also got my friend's non-veggie eating daughter eating as much of it as she can (she has no clue there is zucchini in it)!! - 8/13/11

    I shared this recipe with a bunch of my coworkers. I took it into work for a carry in and I didn't have any leftover to bring home. I kept a loaf for myself, sharing a little with my neighbor, and ate it over the course of a week for breakfast. I'm making it again today. - 10/3/10

    I love chocolate and I love zucchini bread, so this was an awesome combo for me! I ended up using all whole wheat flour and egg substitute, but the end result was still delicious! I even sprinkled a few extra chocolate chips on the top for a little pizzaz. I will make this again for sure! - 7/20/10
