Zucchini Cookies
3/4 c. softened unsalted butter
1 1/2 c. sugar
1 tsp. vanilla
1 1/2 c. grated zucchini
2 1/2 c. unbleached flour
2 tsp. baking soda
1 tsp. cinnamon
1/2 tsp. salt
1 c. chopped walnuts
Mix all ingredients together. Bake at 350 degrees on a greased cookie sheet until golden brown – approximately 12 minutes.
This recipe takes me back to the summer of 1985 and a day I spent with my Aunt Louise, whom we affectionately called ” Weezie”. She had an abundance of zucchini in her garden that year and together we came up with this recipe. Trial and error, lots of taste testing. A very sweet memory. I hope your days spent baking are filled with laughter and the creation of fond memories for years to come.
Enjoy!
