Tips:

  • Use a moist, tender zucchini. This will help the cookies stay moist and prevent them from becoming dry and crumbly.
  • Grate the zucchini finely. This will help it disperse evenly throughout the batter and prevent the cookies from becoming too dense.
  • Don't overmix the batter. Overmixed batter can make the cookies tough.
  • Chill the dough before baking. This will help the cookies hold their shape and prevent them from spreading too much.
  • Bake the cookies until they are just set. Overbaked cookies will be dry and crumbly.
  • Let the cookies cool completely before frosting them. This will help the frosting set properly.
