Prepare: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Butter a 9×13 inch metal pan and line it with parchment paper for easy removal.
Melt Chocolate: In a medium saucepan, melt 2 cups of chocolate chips and butter over medium heat, whisking constantly. Be careful not to let it boil. Once it’s smooth, take it off the heat and let it cool for about 15 minutes.
Dry Ingredients: In a small mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, cocoa powder, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.
Wet Ingredients: In a large bowl, whisk together the eggs, sugar, oil, and vanilla until well blended. Then, add the cooled chocolate mixture and whisk until combined.
Mix: Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, stirring until just combined.
Fold: Gently fold in the grated zucchini and walnuts until everything is well mixed. Pour the batter into the prepared baking pan and sprinkle the remaining chocolate chips on top.
Bake: Bake in the preheated oven for 35-40 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
