Method
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees and generously grease a 6 cup jumbo (or 12 cup standard) muffin tin with nonstick cooking spray.
- In a large bowl, combine the sugar, oil and eggs and mix well until creamy; Stir in the applesauce (or banana) and mix well again.
- In a separate bowl, combine the flour, cocoa, baking soda, cinnamon and salt. Add this dry mixture to the wet ingredients, stirring until just combined. Fold in the zucchini and chocolate chips until everything is well incorporated.
- Divide the batter evenly between the muffins tins and bake for about 20 minutes (or until a toothpick inserted n the center of a muffin comes out clean).

Notes
These muffins can be easily customized by adding your favorite mix-ins. Consider adding a handful of chopped nuts, such as walnuts or pecans, or even some dark chocolate chips for an extra indulgent touch. Just fold them into the batter before baking and enjoy the delightful surprises in every bite.
