Steps:

1. Preheat oven to 350°F. Grease a 9x5-inch loaf pan with baking spray.

3. I like to leave the grated zucchini in a colander so it can drain while mixing the other ingredients. Or you can just lightly press the extra liquid before adding the zucchini.
4. Whisk together the flour, unsweetened cocoa, baking soda, salt, and cinnamon in a large bowl. Whisk until there the ingredients are well combined.
5. In a separate large bowl, beat together the sugar and eggs until smooth. Add the melted butter, instant coffee granules, and vanilla extract and beat until smooth.
6. Add the shredded zucchini into the sugar-egg mixture.
7. Then add the flour to the zucchini mixture in small additions, stirring to combine after each addition.
8. Stir until well blended. Fold in all but a small handful of chocolate chips.
9. Pour batter into greased pan. Sprinkle with a handful of chocolate chips.
10. Place into the oven. Bake for 50 minutes at 350°F or until a skewer inserted into the center comes out clean and easily.
11. Let cool in the pan for 5 minutes. Remove from the loaf pans and let cool completely on a rack.

Tips and Conclusion

Tips:

Use fresh zucchini. Fresh zucchini will give your bread the best flavor and texture. If you don't have fresh zucchini, you can use frozen zucchini that has been thawed and drained.
Grate the zucchini finely. This will help it distribute evenly throughout the batter and will prevent it from making the bread too moist.
Don't overmix the batter. Overmixing the batter will make the bread tough. Mix just until the ingredients are combined.
Bake the bread at the right temperature. The bread should be baked at 350 degrees Fahrenheit for about 50-60 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
Let the bread cool completely before slicing and serving. This will help the bread hold its shape and will allow the flavors to develop.

Conclusion:
