Who would have thought I could make delicious chocolate chip cookies using zucchini? Not me. I have an overabundance of zucchini and this is the perfect 'distraction' recipe. I omitted the raisins because my husband won't eat them in anything. I substituted pecans for the walnuts and butter flavored crisco shortening for the butter with 1/2 teaspoon of water as the crisco can suggests. They were so moist. Almost like a moist cake or bread texture. I baked them for 14 minutes on stoneware cookie sheets. The first sheet 8 minutes on the bottom rack and 6 minutes on the top rack while adding a second sheet of cookies to the bottom rack. Let them cool about 3 minutes and viola, oh, so good! )

I found these to be very bland. I added a tsp. of vanilla and used oatmeal and coconut instead of walnuts and raisins. The first batch I baked until golden as directed but they were too dry so the second batch I took out of oven when they still looked a little "wet" on top and those were much better. If you don't like a sweet cookie then you will like these.

Do you think I could substitute coconut and oatmeal for the raisins and walnuts?

Yes, you can substitute coconut and oatmeal for the raisins and walnuts. Let us know how it turns out!

I'll have to try this without the raisins and nuts...otherwise this sounds wonderful.
