For best results, squeeze out excess moisture from the grated zucchini using a clean kitchen towel or cheesecloth. This prevents the muffins from becoming soggy. Dutch-processed cocoa powder will give the muffins a richer, more intense chocolate flavor. Feel free to add chocolate chips, chopped nuts, or dried fruit to the batter for extra texture and flavor. These muffins freeze well. Allow them to cool completely before wrapping individually in plastic wrap and placing them in a freezer-safe bag or container.
