Zucchini Lemon Cookies


Even though it's officially Fall (which makes me so happy!) our weekly CSA box still has a ton of zucchini and other summer squash in it.  For last week's batch of zucchini I decided to make these Zucchini Cookies that I had seen on My Baking Addiction a little while back.

These cookies use a full cup of finely grated zucchini, which in my case was about 2 fairly large zucchinis.  I made these in a whoopie pie pan that I had completely forgotten that I had.  This kept the cookies from spreading out and then turned out super soft and cake-y.  With a drizzle of lemon-y glaze on top, these will give you one last taste of summer while you're trying to use up your bounty of zucchinis.  The hubby absolutely loved these!  I had him take a bunch to work, and I'm pretty sure he ended up eating all of them and not sharing.....not that I blame him.....

Oh, one last thing.....the recipe calls for raisins......I left the raisins out of my cookies.....I think I've mentioned before my intense dislike of raisins....I will avoid them at any cost!

Check out My Baking Addiction for the recipe.....and Enjoy!!

  9. Ha,Ha, Ha, you are so funny. I don't understand people who intensely dislike raisins, but there seem to be plenty of you. I am looking for cookie recipes for Christmas and a maybe a church function and I have to double think everything as my older brother "intensely dislikes raisin's".
