For extra moist brownies, do not overbake.
Squeeze as much moisture as possible from the grated zucchini before adding it to the batter. This prevents the brownies from becoming soggy.
Feel free to experiment with different types of nuts, such as pecans, walnuts, or almonds.
For a richer chocolate flavor, use dark cocoa powder in both the brownies and the frosting.
Store frosted brownies in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days.

    The frosting is the perfect complement to the brownies. Not too sweet, and the perfect consistency.
